On the way to PCT

I'm in the office setting up the Pacific Crest Jazz tour. It's coming along slowly. I'm hearing rumors that the snow pack in the Sierra this year is the heaviest in 30 years; maybe record-breaking. Yesterday we had another four inches here at Heavenly but it's a terrifically sunny day today. I'm hoping enough snow melts that we don't have to skip the sierra and then doing it out of order, later in the summer.

Here is the gig schedule (later dates are tentative due to the snowpack)
April 27 Viejas Casino 7-10 5000 Willows Rd. Alpine CA 91901 (San Diego)
April 30 Wesgate Hotel 9-12 3rd and Broadway, San Diego, CA 92101
April 29-May 1 ADZPCTKO weekend in Lake Morena (kickoff weekend no performance)
May 20 Nottingham's Big Bear Lake, CA 92315
June 7 Joe's in Burbank. CA
June 11 Private (San Diego)
June 24 Michael Flohr Show (San Diego)
June 25 Private (San Diego)
Jul 16th Rafters in Mammoth Lakes
?Jul ? Mobile Station in Lee Vining
Jul 23rd Plan B in Carson City
July/Aug Barrelhouse in Weed, CA
August 6/7 Jade's Jazz Festival, La Pine Oregon
?Portland (Still in the works)
?Tacoma (Still in the works)
?Seattle (Still in the works)

I'm working on a few other gigs but I definitely want to focus on the trail and not get to hung up on making dates. I know from experience that doesn't work out there on the trail. The Sierra is going to be the deciding factor. I may have to push the gig at Rafters in Mammoth and the gigs in Tahoe around a little bit. I'll probably add a few dates in Lake Tahoe and take a break there since I have been living there this winter. I have a lot of friends there and it will be good to take a little break at the 1100 mile mark.
