Tahoe

The annual trip to my fav. place to snowboard came through . Tahoe was off to a very slow start this season with a huge drought affecting California. Luckily for us 2-3 feet fell a week prior to our trip and upon our arrival an atmospheric river dropped anywhere from 5 -8 ft of snow the first 3 days of the trip. Yep almost 100 inches . Hardest I've  seen it snow .Ever. Hard to get some good pics due to the lens getting belted with snowflakes during the height of the storm. One night it snowed 40 inches in 12 hrs .A true powderhounds dream when arriving for first tracks to see this. It was deeeeeep, and the tree runs were phenomenal.
 Pulley floating in the powder above and I finding some fun jumps exiting the woods below.

Took hundreds of pics with plenty of keepers! In true Tahoe fashion , after snowing for 4 days the sky went completely bluebird . Mind blowing !



Have absolutely no problem sightseeing from the occasional groomed run  here either
