Mount Rose Highway, June 3, 2017

Spence and I decided to explore some areas around Mount Rose Highway that we had not skied before.
Part one would be a partial car shuttle to ski a couple of runs at Sky Tavern.

Spence and Stev pretending that there is lift access.

It was fun to finally ski Sky Tavern.

After skiing Sky Tavern for the first time ever in the morning with just enough cloud cover to keep the snow in good shape, we decided to explore the other side of the pass from Tahoe Meadows.

Stev starts down…

…skis by…

…and continues down with Washoe Lake in the background…

Stev does “the point” before starting another run.
