Still time for some skiing.

With the end of Memorial day weekend, the last few ski resorts in the Tahoe area have closed their lifts for the season. Donner Ski Ranch stayed open throughout the season and closed on monday. Squaw valley also reopened this weekend to allow for some skiing. While it was nice to be skiing and able to ride a lift, the recently fallen snow quickly started melting, resulting in several inches of heavy slush. This snow was exceptionally difficult to ski in, and many people ended up getting injured. The injuries were definatly a bummer; however, for those that could aviod getting hurt, it was a great day. With the skiing subpar, many found themselves back at High Camp enojoying the hot tub, pool, and barque. The resorts in the Tahoe area have closed for the winter, yet there is still skiing to be had without the need to hike. Mammoth mountain is still open. They will remain open till the 4th of July. Mammoth is a great option, however, it is fairly expencive and you will need to find a ride down there, so there are still some draw backs. If Mammoth is not for you, then you can always go back to the old way of hiking for you lines. Whatever your preference may be, there are still options out there for you to choose from.
