    SLC Misconceptions

    Oh I can confirm this without question. One of the worst hangovers I've ever had involved a night out in downtown SLC. We were heading to Powder Mtn the next day, and I barely got up the mountain road before I started puking. Hangover didn't end until around 3pm that day, and they got over a...

    Powder Mountain, UT 2/19/09

    I would love to do Pow Mow today, but I have a feeling it'll be dust on crust. That's a long way to drive for so-so conditions. So we'll do Solitude instead. Snowbird wasn't so great yesterday down low. There were a few soft spots of snow as the day got warmer, but it wasn't as good as when...

    LCC/BCC Conditions

    Hmm... I was planning on going to Powder Mtn this weekend and Snowbird. But if the rain line is that high, maybe I'll stick with the Cottonwood resorts instead. Hopefully the snow moving in today and tonite adds up good.

    Day 1: Powder Mountain. What an undiscovered gem this place is! We got there on Sunday morning and made the drive up the road to the mountain rather than take the shuttle. I heard a lot of hype about how steep the road is, but even in a FWD car, we did fine. I guess I'm used to driving in...

    Well, the trip was perfect. Lots and lots of powder over the 3 days. I'll have a more detailed report tomorrow when I get home. Utah has yet to disappoint...

    Alta Season Pass Price Drop to $725

    A lot. I'll never understand why season passes for the Utah resorts are so much expensive than the CO resorts. The Epic Pass is a steal compared to this as you get to choose from several mountains (Vail, BC, Breck, etc) with no date restrictions.

    Looks like the weather gods heard my prayer. The forecast calls for off and on snow showers through the weekend and into next week. I'll take it! So right now, it looks like I will spend a day at Snowbird (as if that was a question) and a day at Pow Mow. As for day 3, I guess I'll have to...

    I hope you're right about that. This will be the first trip for me this season, so I'm long overdue. I have another one planned for 2/26 - 3/1, so if this upcoming trip is a let down, I get a do-over in a few weeks.

    Seeking advice for Utah trip 2/6-2/9/2009

    Ok, so given what you said, what resort would you go to? I'm going to be in Utah around that same time (Sun - Wed), and after Thursday's storm, it doesn't look good for any new snow for a while. I'm a snowboarder and I like riding in the trees. I've been to Snowbird, Canyons, PCMC, and...
