there will be snow by christmas, in 18 years I've never seen no snow by late december. In fact I can hardly remember a time when most resort weren't 100% by then. Not to worry.

it doesnt look like kwood will open. no snow around the lifts and the bottom hill near chair 5 and 6 which means no snow anywhere else around the bottom. so unless they bring in the worlds snowgun supply and temps drop drastically i dont think its gonna happen. this is really starting to piss me off too because i thought it was just a little late start but its driving me insane. how in the hell is everywhere but here gettin puked on?

that'd be so sick!!!^^^ but u all can't act like we haven't gotten a drop or that things are late. we acutally recieved like 3 feet of snow thus far this season, most has melted but there is about 14 inches at the kirk wood red lake area. i was up there doingt rails. and also the season typically starts for all of tahoe arond the end of noverember to the beginning of december. so just chill for a while. this season is gonna rule either way cuz we live in an area where most the mountains have awesome pakrs and recieve over 350 inches a year and u can ski till the end of may

Kirkwood always has the most snow.

After a season like last years, i wouldnt be surprised if Tahoe gets a meager amount of snow this year.

wow, last year was sick. 10 feet in 4 days at kirkwood in April?

Its getting cold now at least so maybe we can hope for resorts to open in like a week. High pressure systems are holding out for like another week so we'll see after that. keep our fingers crossed.
