Trip Report
(editor’s note: this is a brief trip report from our friend Christian. He and his buddies spent Memorial Day Weekend snowboarding in the Tioga Pass area. They found good snow and good times up there. This report is photo heavy to help show everyone exactly how this zone is holding up. Looks like a great time.)

Skinned out Saturday morning with the crew from Saddle Bag lake [right off Tioga Pass, CA]. Had brought the bikes in case we had to ride up the road to Saddle Bag, lucky for us it was wide open and you could drive and park at the one end of the lake.
Once we got around the lake we dropped some gear at where we would later set up camp just below GPS Bowl on the still somewhat frozen shore of Greenstone Lake.
Saturday morning held great snow come late morning/early afternoon.
Probably still a couple weeks left of fun spring shredding to be had out there so go get after it!
Thanks for the great report! We’re headed up there this weekend. Did you ski, or see, the couloirs off North Peak? I’m hoping they’re still holding some snow and aren’t all ice yet. 🙂
Yea North peak looked good. To be honest when we were there after topping out above GPS bowl and looking out, those bowls and lines all looked really good. Saw a few lines from others as well so it is definitely a viable option. Go get it and good luck!

Hit this 2 weeks ago. May have to pull a repeat next week 🙂
Nice. If you head up there, we’d love to see photos. thanks.
Should still be good, wish I had gone up sooner!
Wish I wasn’t so lazy.
Looks fun.
Strong work. I love this area. Spent many summers up at Cascade lake just down the trail.
