Since N* is opening early this year, I thought I get the snow cam going. Now just sit back and watch the snow melt.

and just in case there are any hot chicks wondering around............

 

[ServeEm]

Still way too much white up there. Can't wait to rip it at the star.

 

[FREERDR4LF]

Soon It Will All Be Ours!!!!
Muahahaha!!!

 

[Westy]

You need a "watch the dust collect on BrianHCM1's bike" cam.

The leaf blower is in the shop getting tuned up for the big dust removal session

 

[byoung]

i dont think a leaf blower will work. you may need a bondo scraper to remove the dust. believe me i've seen it, the dust adds a good color to the bike.

the snow isnt melting fast enough!

 

[Nstar Live Wire]

The opening plan is to open just the lower mountain with the Gondola on May 24th. There will be discounted lift tickets ($20). As the snow melts up higher, the Vista and Tahoe Zephyr lifts will open. Pray for a warm May!

May 24th. That is a full month earlier than ever before!

So we should head up there this weekend with hair dryers and looong extension cords to help this snow melt, whose in?

 

[STPIZZAY]

Im down, if only we could rent one of those heated blower trucks they use to dry the nascar track after it rains, and sneak in late at night.

 

[Brian HCM#1]

Melt faster DAMN IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Prettym1k3]

It's melting WAYYYY too slow.

 

[surfinguru]

I dunno, supposed to be in the mid to upper 80's around the Bay Area this weekend. Might not need to break out the hair dryers after all.

 

[Red Rabbit]

Looks life some hot chicks are on the patio.

 

[Brian HCM#1]

Yeah!!! Starting to see dirt

 

[tumbler]

discounted season passes if the top isnt open in may?

 

[Brian HCM#1]

I don't see how the top would even be close to being open with all that snow. Pray for 80 degree weather from today till opening

 

[PatBranch]

I don't see any dirt.

 

[systmrocks99]

I see some dirt!

 

[Brian HCM#1]

Might actually be decent opening weekend.

 

[ZEDMAN]

lots o dirt. melt!!!

 

[Connundrum1]

Sweet dirt oh how i love thee. I'm stoked to go to N* this summer since i won a season pass at Sea Otter!

 

[FREERDR4LF]

you suck joey, just rub it in. i hope you have to do $229.00 in repairs before N*

 

[marcm]

[Prettym1k3]

Haha... this made me laugh.

 

[FR4life.]

Theres people riding the superpipe right now! so much snow left up above mid-mountain.

 

[Prettym1k3]

This halfpipe business makes me angry.

Looks like I'll be riding Downieville a lot before Northstar.

Dville is going to be a WHILE, the saddle and the buttes get more snow than tahoe

 

[kidwoo]

No they don't


There's just as much snow in tahoe at the butte's elevation.


Always has been.

 

[marcm]

OK it on I am getting my new 08 Glory sometime in the next two weeks Giant is hooking it up.. so i will see all you out there.



Thanks College Cyclery and Ausy Dean...

 

[ZEDMAN]

Sweet, good to see your gonna be riding again!

 

[ridenorcal]

Would it be worth it to make the trip up from the Bay Area for opening weekend with just the lower mountain open?

 

[Brian HCM#1]

Would it be worth it to make the trip up from the Bay Area for opening weekend with just the lower mountain open?

Honestly................. No. I'll be there if half the upper portion is open. If only the lower is, I'd wait another week or two.

 

[ridenorcal]

Yea thats what I figured. I'll be up there as soon as all/most of the mountain is open. Looking forward to a great season!!!

 

[FREERDR4LF]

half the mountain isn't worth the gas it takes to get there if you're more than 50 miles away. anyone heard on how soon the upper will be open? i know it depends on the snow melting but im sure none of us would mind riding with the snow there.

If you want to ride your bike on snow that completely covers trails, you don't need to pay for it at northstar.


Look at a topo of tahoe......anything above 7k is your playground
