    Total Solar Eclipse in Mexico, Apr. 8, 2024

    car rentals in Mexico are some of the most painful experiences I ever had in traveling the world. they just love to stick it to gringos IMO. driving in Mexico is always painful and requires total concentration all the time, especially in major cities. i was in Park City for work on Monday...

    Mt. Baldy, CA, March 3, 2023

    Yep -- 3 or 4 runs max on Sunday from what I hear . From what I read on Mt. High's FB feed the last few feet of the road are still not plowed. Again........water water everywhere and not a drop to drink! I remember when "Snowpocalypse 2019" happened in Arrowhead and they didn't plow the...

    Mt. Baldy, CA, Feb. 27, 2023

    Everyone wants to ski /board these days. Demand has gone way way up and supply has not. Baldy hasn't expanded any lift capacity or skiable acreage in what.....50 years? Social media , less people working in general, more flextime, large urban market, really piss-poor snow years down here...

    Historic Mt. Baldy Snow Forecast
