Dec. 1 West Tahoe Area.
Temps: lower 20s. 2-4 inches new, dry. X-C blue bordering on purple at
7-9K ft.
Weather: Morning clear and sunny turning to patchy high clouds.
Base: 3-5 feet with the 2 in. new.
Went cross country skiing yesterday after a weak front went thru (trying
to save money on a Civil Service Salary). Went to the area N of Donner
Summit off I80. Visited the Peter Grubb Hut and ascended Castle Peak
for a wind-blown run down. Snow conditions nice considering we beat the
crowds going out. Snow should be good for one more day, it raining in the
Bay Area today.
___________________________________-
If you happen to live in the San Francisco Bay area, I am looking for
people to share driving expenses on the weekends. The only thing I ask
is that you have to be able to leave on 24-hr notice (soon after a storm).
I want to develop a "net" of locals interested in skiing (or climbing).
I have tried to avoid going with the local Sierra Club and AAC (have
attended a couple of meetings).
What you do in the mountains (cross country or alpine downhill) is
your preference. I principally want to share expenses. My personal interests
are easy: I like doing everything but jumping, mogels, and packed runs.
I make no distinction between cross country and down hill or extreme skiing
(if you are interested in this latter, I want to talk to you).
Accomodations: sometimes I stay with friends or relatives, other times I
have a tent and a warm bag. So,
if you are a Bay Area crazy [you really like skiing and will even get up at
4 AM to go], drop me a note, or if you know somebody. It's doesn't matter
where you live, we can work out some type of transportation arrangement,
you just have to love skiing.
