All Your Base Are Belong to Us @ Sugar Bowl Sugar Ski Resort located on the summit of Donner Pass, CA has measured 536″ of snowfall on the upper mountain for the season. Yes, that is over 46 FEET (13 meters) of snow! On Monday, February 6th, 2017 Bevan Waite and I braved some stormy conditions to see all the snow with our own eyes.

Unfortunately, extremely high winds shut down the chairs to the summit but we definitely were able to make the best of it. Conditions Report Casey Cane | February 10, 2017 0 Comments
