RE: A Few Snowy Photos From Around My House

Wow that is a crap ton of snow. Your photos just cranked up the Way-Back Machine...
I lived in Reno about 25 years ago and I remember a winter like the one you are having now. I think the total accumulation for the winter up in Tahoe was over 20'. There was one massive snow storm (8'+/-) and all we wanted to do was get up the mountain to do some skiing but the roads were closed for days. The first resort we could get to was Mt. Rose, not my favorite but that was some amazing skiing those days.
Good luck moving all that snow. !LUV the photos.

Thank you for the "good luck"! Fortunately, it's not snowing today and I don't have to touch the shovel. Yeah, most of the resorts have been closed during this, just too much to deal with and not safe to drive. We're still being asked to stay off the roads if we can, a lot of clean up needs to happen.
About 25 years ago... Would that have been the big El Niño winter of 1997? I was living in South Lake Tahoe that winter and working as a resort photographer at Heavenly Ski Resort. It was my first year on a snowboard and we had almost daily powder days. Fun times!
