Powder Magazine-Storm Dispatch: Tahoe, California

WORDS & PHOTOS: Ryan Salm

Wake up early, drink tea, eat breakfast, shovel, ski, shovel, eat dinner, shovel, sleep, repeat. In all seriousness, it has been snowing for two straight months in Tahoe and this is our new normal.

The land of Sierra Cement has been quickly transformed into a locale where the sun seldom shines and choking on chest deep powder is the norm. If I wasn’t so tired from from crushing laps both in the backcountry and at virtually every resort in North Lake Tahoe, I would attempt to gather the complete snowfall stats since the start of the season.

Always stoked to work with Ryan, more words and photos here
