What a crock. That's some new math marketing right there. If you've skied LCC for almost 40 years like I have, you'll know it is absolutely impossible for snowbird's season total to be that close to alta's. Ever.Quote:

Snow physics haven't suddenly changed. If Alta's 702", you can bet the ranch snowbird's actual is 500-something. But, whatever. Can't deny it works for marketing.
totally agree, alta gets way more snow.Quote:

seems like the bird is deep in the mid elevation and on the left side thats coinsidentally closer to alta. top is wind scour, mineral is sun beat, bottom is rain, and around baby thunder it just doesn't snow sometimes. but whatever snowbird congrats on breaking your 'record'.
Sitting at 705" right now with 25" in the forcast before closing day Sunday.
720" = 60 Feet. 60 FEET!
Ullr must be a leftie. I was there for a week and didn't see a FLAKE!
Awww crap... again?

At least you finally posted something remotely related to skiing. Feeling o.k.?
I'm thinking mid July before the stuff up high is open this year.
made my first uphill climb of 2011 yesterday - shitloads of snow - great turns till the end of july
Which is just FKN perfect, because I'll be there the first week in August. If there's a sliver left up top, I'll buy ya a tram ticket.Quote:

Pretty funny though you would waste all your time sowing the seeds of fuctarded poli asshattery and expect the snow gods to bestow the blessing of over the shoulder cold smoke blower pow for you to reap.
I don't vote, so today was GREAT!
I think he was actually grateful it didn't snow. Messes with his wedge turns.Quote:

Yep, Alta gets more snow than Snowbird, Brighton does too. But way more...? Not even.Quote:
