1. The Snow is Good Some might complain about 'Sierra Cement' when referring to the snow quality of this area, but the truth is that the Tahoe storms usually have a pretty fluffy snow. It isn't as light as Colorado, but you won't hear anything but hooting and hollering here on a powder day. 2. The Terrain is Excellent and there is a Lot of It. Heavenly Resort alone boasts over 5,000 acres and Squaw is close behind. For those ...
Going to a ski/ snowboard oriented college in a mountain town offers a lot of benefits. And I'm not just talking about easy classes, living 5 minutes from an epic mountain, and incredible views. This year I joined Backcountry Club, after hearing a retarded amount of stories from the Jackson Hole trip last Febuary. I also joined the Freeriders club, which is kind of a lot of talk, but not much else. The Freeriders club put on a premier at the local wing place, but that ...
Here at CMC, they like to see their students succeed, so instead of making everyone go straight onto college math, even if they are unprepared, and risking the high possibility of many failing students taking the class over and over until they pass, they require students to test into classes and take remedial math.

(Its required for first years) So I didn't really need a job, (I worked 8 hours a week in the school library, which payed for my booze n what not.) I didn't need a car, (I walked, or crutched, a minute to class and food; plus my rich Land Roving buddy drove us all over) almost all my friends were in the dorm with me, and if i felt the need to go out drinking (or smoking) I had multiple ...
I use to consider myself lucky, ever since 2001, I've lived no more than 2 miles away from The House. I use to hang around in there just for the atmosphere. The guys would have conversations about great trips they had, we'd clown on girls that just came in to buy stuff because "skater stuff is in style" and above the door was a DJ setup, the Dj's would rotate every other day but the mixes were always sick. I mainly bought shoes and skate stuff, and back then I was ...
