It is a LOVELY weekend here in Strawberry, chilly in the early morning, but great weather by noon. Since several schools were out LAST week, and even more are out this coming week, Dodge Ridge is staying open until next SUNDAY ! So if you haven't had those skis out of the garage yet this year, it is not too late YET! We are expecting a storm on Tuesday, and possibly one on Saturday which will add to the base at the ski area and make for the best skiing - fresh always trumps "machine groomed" even if those groomers are geniuses at finding and moving around the white stuff that makes skiing possible in a relatively DRY winter!
We have vacancies at The Rivers Resort and if you mention MountainMartha you can have the off-season rates THIS WEEK even if our rates are not SUPPOSED to change until after Sunday the 15th!! I'm just the curious sort RE: guests READING my blog!!
The daffodils are blooming as far up the mountain as Sierra Village, but the flowering plum next to the Post Office in Strawberry has NOT bloomed yet, so we still have some more storms coming! Cal Trans moved the winter closure point to Eagle Meadows Rd to allow folks to find some snow to play in. The Leland SNOW PLAY is open www.snowplay.com as well as DodgeRidge.com where you will find the best web cams in the Sierras!! I think that everyone must check the weather using the web cams as I get very few "Is it snowing?" calls anymore.
We are thankful that this weekend is a sunny one for all of the Easter Egg Hunting children, but will be thankful for the additional moisture in the high country - we need that as well! Have a blessed Easter and be thankful!!
