A spring storm this week left skiers and riders with a welcome surprise - fresh snow and bluebired powder conditions. The forecast for the coming weekend is perfect for the Truckee-Tahoe Earth Day on Saturday and the Lake Cushing Crossing on Sunday. Squaw Valley's snowpack remains robust at up to 100" on the upper mountain. The resort is scheduled to be open through Mother's Day. That is plenty of time to get up here, take some turns and enjoy a soak at the High Camp Pool and Spa elevation 8200' now open daily.
