All I can say is WHAT A DAY! Homewood today is why we all either live at Lake Tahoe or visit Lake Tahoe: amazing snow, gorgeous weather, great friends, and stunning scenery. It really doesn’t get any better.
Today was Homewood’s opening day, and the entire mountain was open thanks to the 5+ feet of snowfall (at the base!) the mountain has received so far this December. I found light, silky snow off trail on the north facing slopes in the trees, and Shaggy and his team of grooming pros deserve a HUGE nod for putting down some of the best groomed trails! Thanks guys!
If you still need a little motivating “push” to log off the computer and start logging some vertical at Homewood, here are some pictures and videos from opening day. Hope to see you here soon!
All signs pointed toward a beautiful opening day, right from watching the sunrise from the shore at Homewood:
This is “just the way it is” at Homewood:
First chair for the day – AND for winter 09/10!
You won’t find friendlier skiers and riders than you will at Homewood:
Beautiful snow, fun vibe, gorgeous day – see what I mean? Doesn’t get better than this!!
Heather Cosby was stoked on the snow and the view:
And of course, one of Homewood’s frequent visitors, Ellis, dropped in to say hello around noon:
Ellis was jealous because he can’t ski. Because he’s an eagle.
This view is amazing, whether you’ve seen it once or a million times:
Great snow, lots of fun people out there for Homewood’s opening day – what a great beginning!
