Southern California Local Ski Resort Update – Some damn good snow

Gang the local mountains got dumped on over the last few days...which has been great for the resorts but bad for the roads (and trying to get to the resorts).

A friend of mine headed up to Bear on Thursday and said it took nearly 4 hours to get from HB up to the mountain but once there that it was awesome with power everywhere. Anyway I thought I would throw up the latest Ski Conditions for the local resorts so you can check them out...if you head up that way, at minimum you are going to need chains but a 4x4 with chains would be the best call.
