I wanted to get out of the WC today and head up Heavenly where they have re-opened the mountain for the day to celebrate something. I don't know what. I really wanted to ski. I don't want my season to end just yet, but I couldn't justify the trip because they were only running the gondola. Even at 40 bucks for a lift ticket, which on most days would seem a bargain, the thought of skiing a run and standing in a massive line at the gondola was enough for me not to make the three hour trip back east to Tahoe.

Squaw Valley is open until the end of the month and if we get any significant snowfall, I'm there.
