Jan 1, 2009! Tahoe TR - Sloppy Seconds on Maggies

**Huckwheat** · 01-02-2009, 12:17 PM

Happy New Year!!

I am just happy to have some snow in Tahoe, and to get out.

Skied Maggies on the West Shore (right near Emerald Bay). Got in 3 laps, with the first having good snow and the second two changing to uber-mank.
--Gorgeous day, good friends, great views, and SKIIN'!!

LAP 1:

LAP 2:

LAP3:

The last run was rough, the slop stuck to everything: bottom of skis, boots, legs, etc.

THE END!

The pictures make it look good. Can't believe you went for more. We were on the next area to the north and only did one lap that day. Thought the downhill was more work than the uphill and we looked like the picture in the other thread.

We both have little kids, and both of our families were out of town.....this was our shot at a big day....even glare ice wouldnt have stopped us.

Looks like you made the best out of some heavy conditions...we stopped half way down to try some wax it was so grabby. My kid free days are numbered and it's always nice just to be out.
