Gared is a Tahoe transplant from the land of the Spuds (Idaho) and one of the BHappy kids that kill it all around Tahoe on the daily. He is one of the nicest dudes you can come across on the mountain so don't be afraid to say HI and take some laps with this kid because you might learn something about what snowboarding is really all about, the FUN! He rips and and can bust his collar bone and learn double corks in the same season without sacrificing style. Keep an eye on this kid cuz he's comin up!

Squaw Valley built a spring park up at the old mainline pocket zone again this year as well as the OG Riv jump line which many were stoked to welcome back. We had a lot of great days up there with plenty of sunshine, airtime, pooltime, jibtime, and apres for all. Squaw is heavenly year round but it really shines in the spring when you don't have to bundle up everyday anymore and it really shows from the mass bikinis and boardshorts that get rocked under (not always) the shred kits on the mountain and coming out at the High Camp pool area. Squaw offers something for everyone and we already can't wait for next season.
