Operations Update: January 25

  • Jan 24, 2017
  • 4:55 pm

The Palisades Tahoe Family is deeply saddened by the tragic event this morning, and we extend our deepest sympathies to the family and friends affected. The decision to operate Squaw Valley tomorrow was presented to the leadership of Squaw Valley Ski Patrol. Revealing incredible strength of character and resilience of the men and women of our world-class ski patrol team, our patrol leadership asked that we run the mountain and do so tomorrow in honor of Joe Zuiches. 

We want to give a huge thank you to our patrollers, groomers, lift mechanics and ALL mountain operations teams who make it possible for us enjoy these magnificent mountains. We thank you for working through this storm cycle that provided over 23 feet of snow in 23 days, and for every other storm cycle that allow us to ski and ride our favorite terrain. Give an operations team member a big high-five next time you see them on the slopes.

The Joe Zuiches Memorial Fund has been established and is available here through GoFundMe.

See what is on the schedule for tomorrow.

Operations Update: Wednesday Re-Opening Plans

Tomorrow, Wednesday, March 15th, we plan to reopen both Alpine and Palisades. We appreciate your patience with us being closed today: Our teams NEEDED this day to try to get ahead a bit, and snow conditions are not conducive to a good day of skiing -- It rained as far up as 9,000 feet at times. We spent the day continuing to dig out, performing snow safety, addressing flood zones, and preparing for the few days ahead that have a break in the weather. Tomorrow, we still expect that some of our lifts will be delayed. We will start with a lower mountain offering and expand throughout the day as we can.

Operations Update: The Never-Ending Storm Cycle + Sunday Expectations

Following a very wet 36 hours, we achieved the opening goals we set yesterday and got every lift that we expected today, thanks to the hard work of our ops teams. Seriously, it is hard work out there: So many people are out there digging chairlifts out by hand after spending the early morning hours digging their vehicles and homes out first. Our snowpack is very saturated with water and heavy, which can also make things difficult for our grooming machines. We truly have no clear days in the forecast to recover from this wet weather event, so we appreciate your patience.
