[ChineseSkiClub] Re: Ski Trip:: Lake Tahoe (01/19-25/2013)

Lake Tahoe has received feet of fresh powder snow!   Don't miss this opportunity to ski with a group of expert friends together in the best snow condition.  Please *see* the latest snow report from our friend Taichi master Mr. Shen at Heavenly:

 

(On 12/19/2012) "It was beautiful day, beautiful snow, and beautiful skiing, but all the video clips were ruined by fogging of gopro2, kind of like Norman and beg on this forum, they suck big time.  And the weather was called for snow flurries in morning, sunny in the afternoon, and that was wrong too, in fact, just the opposite, by three o'clock in the afternoon, the mountain was totally suck in, cold, windy, and white-out, it sucked like Norman and beg, big time.  The good news is that we get to ski the powder again today. The weather forecast is again called for big snow storms with several "feet" of snow on and off from Friday through Sunday. Haha, as previous few forecasts called for "feet" of snow but never really materialized, we'll see how it goes this time."
