STORY
SUMMARY: [Squaw Valley USA] October 10, 2007- Another
in a series of early season storms blanketed the slopes of Squaw
Valley USA (http://www.squaw.com) with over 6" of fresh
snow Tuesday night. 4" of snow fell in the base village,
and early morning road conditions forced chain controls over
area mountain passes. While the snow was melting quickly by
midday, the 4th in a series of fall storms brought the total
snowfall to 17" at Squaw Valley before the season even
starts, and further peaked the interest of eager skiers and
snowboarders. Squaw Valley is scheduled to open for the season
on November 17th.
