Southern-Most Ski Resort in the Nation...

...And the winner is... Mt. Lemon's Ski Valley!


I'm not even kidding. We've got our very own ski resort right here in Tucson! One double chair, 13 runs, and this winter we even have snow. Last weekend's storms dumped roughly 14 inches of fresh snow on the peaks and with the reasonably cold weather we had this week, north facing slopes kept their accumulation. Add in the dusting of almost 2 inches Thursday, and you've got snowboarding at the southernmost ski resort in the Nation.




Sure there were some exposed boulders here an there. Sure there were a bunch of drunk desert rats doing thier best to get in my way. Sure Kenny G made a guest appearance. But nothing was stopping me from enjoying my second weekend of riding in Arizona (see my previous blog entry for details on the Sunrise trip).

It was frickin' fabulous. I wish you all were there. Maybe you were...
