    UT: AltaBird 2021-01-19 & 20

    The snow surfaces remain bad. Two inches Monday into Tuesday helped a little. Every sort of combination of coral reef with death cookies, to rock hard pack studded with real rocks like you’d find in a low snow year in the East, to too-short stretches of silky wind drift that skied like a dream...

    Mt. Baldy, CA $150 unrestricted pass

    Elk Mountain, PA

    Elk is, well, the best I've skied in Pennsylvania so far. My other forays into Keystone State skiing include Spring, Bear Creek, and Blue Mountains, and Shawnee Peak. So Elk being the best in PA is faint praise, indeed. At 1000 foot vertical, it skied better and longer than Blue, which lists a...

    Alta 1/19/16

    Bluebird powder day! Boot top or better, everywhere you went. I skied with Tony, the grain farmer from Indiana that I met during yesterday's workshop. Several off of Supreme. The skiing was phenomenal, especially in the trees. A local on my first chair ride speculated Ballroom would open...

    Alta, 1/18/16

    My birthday present is 4 days of skiing in Alta. Flew in from PHL through DFW Sunday night. Flights were uneventful, other than the 3 gate changes in DFW due to a LGA bound plane that went mechanical and blocked our original gate. Arrived at Gold Miners Daughter around 9pm and settled in...

    Alta Master Plan

    I found Eddie's High Nowhere to have a greater pucker factor than Perla's, but I guess you'd have to classify EHN as hike-to as well.

    Alta Master Plan

    Aren't the A-Z chutes at Big Sky similarly DFU terrain? Somehow they're running a tram up there.

    Alta lift ticket strategy for Jan 18-21?

    Hi FTO friends, What's my best strategy for obtaining reasonably-priced lift tickets this year at Alta for Mon-Thu, Jan 18-Jan 21? Snowbird is optional; I would go the AltaBird route if I have tour guide(s) who want to do that. I will be staying at GMD and would enjoy meeting up with anyone...
