              I stayed at Harrah's when I came to Shredfest 5 years ago (?) and it was a nice place, big room and the price was great. Have not been there since so do not know the state of the property. Very convenient to everything too. Parking garage was nice too.

                It's still nice. Fred and his wife have booked a room there. His wife is not a skier. She'll be trying to win money while we are on the slopes. Anyone staying there should get together with him to carpool to the resorts. I'm sure he will appreciate the company.

                  Holy Guacamole, and this storm is supposed to last another 4 days through Friday.
                  48" in past 24 hours
                  114" in past 7 days
                  214" season total so far
                  70 - 105mph winds expected today
                  possibly over 20' total from this one storm.

                  This is beyond epic into being dangerous.

                  Heck this rivals what the Donner Party received all winter in just 2 weeks.

                    It's insane! We started off the season very slowly getting hardly any snow. Now we are getting nuked to death. The resorts can't even open because of all the snow and wind. Sunday night they recorded winds as high as 175 mph on the mountain tops. It is scary windy here in Reno today.

                      Shredfest 2017 - South Lake Tahoe

                      They actually closed three resorts here in Colorado. 83" as of yesterday from this storm and at least another foot today.

                      They are saying another 30" before Friday.

                      Hope they are open by Saturday because I need to go play in the powder!

                        It's been a crazy 48 hours! Right now the power is out in all of North Tahoe (Truckee) area.



                        This is the result of a triggered avalanche in Alpine yesterday. Oops!

                            Squaw has received over 13 feet of new snow in January so far. Some residents decided to go house hucking.
