In honor of the Tram Face…
Here’s a video from my friend Mile Clark recently going after it in both well- and lesser-known spots around Squaw. The Tram Face is slated for Sat., Feb 27 but there’s an event window through March 4 so it can run in optimal conditions.
Here’s Miles’ helmet cam, and listen for the end when he realizes [...]

Future Olympian? At Squaw's Oly. Museum (High Camp)
You might know some of the Squaw-folk who are at the Olympics because you bought a cookie next to them at Wildflower. Or your kid may have gotten to take a few runs with them while in the Mighty Mites. You could have watched Shannon Bahrke train one [...]

Since it’s been a little dry lately we’ve been finding ourselves doing what Alex Cushing told us to way back when: “Ski the Sun.” It’s a tried and true technique for all of the Sierra and it rings true at Squaw. Places like the Sun Chutes, Sun Bowl, Broken Arrow, Gate 8 in Silverado, Red [...]

The email from SVUSA which went out on Thursday was a fair-play announcement that couldn’t have been more welcome for those who didn’t get to the hill on Friday (which was also an awesome day, btw). This was a classic [...]

We’ve gotten over 64 inches in a week – I guess the patroller who said 7′ in 10 days wasn’t too far off…. Check out the Storm Tracker on Squaw.com for the ridiculous line-up of digits showing the totals. Yesterday was the deepest day of the season. Snowshoe Thompson-esque accumulation rates buried us yesterday and [...]
