Today’s lunch ride showed me that I’ve always preferred groomed runs to moguls. Reminds me that while at my home mountain of Heavenly (in the 90s), I mainly skied the single blacks and only maybe a handful of times skied Mott Canyon (double black). Though, I did Ski and Snowboard Kirkwood’s “The Wall”, and that was the first time I ever skied a chute. If I want to explore steeps, chutes, or most double blacks (aka my eyeballing Squaw’s KT-22 chair), I definitely need to practice more on the moguls on no powder days like today.

After looking more into the history of Squaw Valley, I see that those cliffs (aka the Palisades) were/are skied by some of the craziest skiers in the world. I’ll stick with skiing just below them, unless my level of craziness increases to that point. #mysquawalpine #squawalpine #veteran @squawalpine (at Siberia Bowl At Squaw Valley) https://www.instagram.com/p/B7cdNcAlmHX/?igshid=17ofm7oufwj57

Soaking in my first day back on the mountains of my hometown area in about 18 years. Battery goes quick with the Squaw Apline app, good stuff though. #mysquawalpine #squawalpine #skiing #skier #veteran (at Gold Coast Squaw Valley U.S.A) https://www.instagram.com/p/B7Wq4PUFjwE/?igshid=w9d2ptq6at00
