Winter in LA…..

It’s winter in LA. This is the time of year when the local news has “Storm Watch” at slightest hint of rain. Winter is our “rainy” season. And “rainy” is a stretch. When the storms do roll in from the Gulf of Alaska and we get a quarter of an inch (big storm) here in the basin, the local mountains get snow. The snow this year is spectacular.

Recently, my brother Temper and I went to Skidazzle at the convention center in downtown Los Angeles. It is a big trade show sort of thing. Lots of vendors with the latest equipment show up and sell their stuff right there at the show.

 

There are booths for the resorts, contest, and it’s the kick- off party for winter. We picked up some new gear and had a great time.

 

My crew and I took a little trip up to Mountain High near Wrightwood, CA. a few days after Skidazzle and we had a blast.

 

It was right after a storm and the powder was fresh and the sky was super blue.

 

We boarded all day and hung out a little at the lodge.

It was a beautiful way to spend a day here in Southern California, and it’s only 70 miles from LA.

We always have a million things to do here in LA, but the wintertime has special offerings for us. Take a little time and enjoy.

Love, love
