"Little mid-winter reminder that Olympic Valley has long been a magnet for talent. Generations of the world's best skiers have called the place home and it looks like the tradition is alive and well. Not sure there's many other resorts you could find this many skiers casually tossing backies and 3s off a natural feature. The density of high level skiers at Palisades is no joke:"
"Saturday - Sunday Weather: Clouds and sun for the weekend with ridgetop winds gusting up to 40-50+ mph from the SW Saturday, and then possibly dropping on Sunday. Highs in the 30s for the upper elevations and 40s for the lower elevations. The latest model runs are digging the next storm south along the West Coast over the weekend, with southerly flow developing on the east side, and the precipitation so slow to progress east into the Sierra that we may have to wait until Monday to see snow."
Olympic Valley has long attracted generations of the world's top skiers and maintains a high concentration of advanced skiers at Palisades. Recent storms delivered an additional nine inches to the upper mountain over a two-day period, matching expectations. Thursday and Friday should be mostly sunny with possible afternoon clouds and isolated mountain snow showers, and temperatures in the 30s to 40s by elevation. The weekend will feature gusty SW ridgetop winds and mixed clouds and sun, with scattered showers possible Sunday night. Model guidance indicates a slow south-coast storm track that may push substantial Sierra snow into Monday and Tuesday.
