| "Cushing Classic at Squaw Valley 23" - Photograph of a skier crossing a pond during the Cushing Classic at Squaw Valley, USA. |
This past weekend brought an end to the 2011/2012 ski season at Squaw Valley USA. My son skis and I snowboard there almost every Sunday in the winter. It's one of the reasons we moved to the Tahoe area.
This closing weekend was also the famous Cushing Classic pond crossing. An event where skiers and snowboards dress in silly costumes and attempt to ski across Lake Cushing (it's more of a pond than lake).
I was there with my friends and family and wasn't planning on working, but I brought my camera just in case. We ended up getting a great spot to sit, thanks to my wife, so I got the camera out of the bag. I'm glad I did, as I got a ton of fun and funny photos of a very entertaining event.
Below is a slideshow of the Cushing Classic. If it looks like fun, be sure to check it out next spring!
