It’s Raining in SoCal — And That’s the Best Christmas News Possible 🎄

🎄 Merry Christmas, Ski Fam ❄️

Rain at Home, Snow in the Mountains = Storm Day Magic 🎁

Hey Ski Fam,

If you’re reading this, pause for a second.
Listen close.

Yep.
That’s rain on the roof. 🌧️
Wind in the trees.
A true Southern California Christmas.

Down here, it’s wet and gray.
Up there?
The mountains are getting fed. ❄️

And honestly?
That contrast never gets old.

🎿 A Very SoCal Mountain Christmas

I woke up early today.
Coffee in one hand.
Rain tapping the windows.

Boots lined up anyway.

Because in SoCal, storms don’t sound like snow.
They sound like rain.
And they mean snow.

This is how it works for us.
We wait.
We watch.
We trust the cycle.

Rain at home.
Powder up top.

That’s the deal we signed up for. 🤝

🏔️ If You’re Heading Up — Read This First

Storm skiing is special.
But it asks for respect.

Here’s how to win the day:

• Slow it down

• Ski with soft eyes

• Keep your turns round

• Stay warm and patient

Fresh snow hides things.
Wind changes plans.

That’s not a problem.
That’s skiing.

Staying home today?
You’re still doing it right.

Stretch a bit.
Check the cams.
Let the storm do its thing. 🔥
