Show Notes
An intense mid-March heat wave was the death knell for operations at some California ski parks. Several Tahoe resorts waved the white flag and are closing operations a month early, while smaller, lower-elevation ski parks shuttered operations even earlier. If this becomes a longer trend, can resorts withstand an on-again, off-again winter in future seasons?
