yeah keep checking at the Bird they usually most years start the Spring pass March-1, that one that starts that early is still a bit spendy, i believe it's maybe in the 500 to 600ish range.Quote:

Things are looking good up here at Soli, road was smooth sailing too. I’m finally busting out the protests for the first time this year. Giddy as a school kid!
I wrote a Haiku this morning on the shitter at work while slitting my wrists...
I hate to work OT
Powder you shred is from me
I wish I could ski
Heard LCC was backed to Bengal on wasatch at 740am. Might just wait til tomorrow. Ugh

I don't know about 7:40 AM, but here's a photo of the traffic at 9:20 AM courtesy of the UDOT traffic cameras. You can check traffic and road conditions at many canyon and Wasatch Blvd. camera locations via this UDOT web site, http://www.utahcommuterlink.com. Their main map also shows colored coded traffic congestion. The cameras can be aimed by UDOT folks, so sometimes they pont in different directions. The camera at the mouth of LCC usually shows the traffic sign, and you can often read what it says about restrictions (in case your other sources are not quite up to date). This morning, however, the LCC camera is pointing down canyon.Quote:

Must be nutty. They closed LCC road again. My buddy spent 4 hours waiting and on the bus only to get off and go home. Those lucky few that beat the closure are likely enjoying country club conditions. I bet tomorrow will be equally as bad since today many likely turned around.

Sounds like quite the gong show today. Still beats sitting in OH where its 50 and pissing rain.
Get after it today and save me some for tomorrow.
Damn, looks like nearly everything’s open at the Bird, kinda surprising. Good job SSP. Road closed, country club. One of those days you live for. Enjoy Bob!
For 15" of new, the LCC didn't ski as good as y'all who are stuck out would think. A bit upside down, and for 1" water, the trail breaking ain't easy.
Went through a natural cycle with the high PI rates late in the storm.
Debris actually skied the best early this am.
The unskied will actually ski better tomorrow after it sets up a little...silver linings if you weren't up here.
No wind since the snow began...watch out for them rocks!
Bro went up and got into bcc canyon around 07:30. He parked at Brighton 15 minutes before open and was likely close to first chair from his report. Had to work today :(. At least I got to go outside and play with the kids in the snow, they had a good time.
Snowbird did not suck. I filled my hood several times with the over the shoulder blower. I caught 10th Zoom chair, and was wondering where the heck everyone was at, I was too busy charging to hear about the canyon closure. Either get up early and wait upstream, or wait in the conga line.
I'm sure they weren't but wtf you going to do? Not all people skiing LCC live in SLC or surrounding. Some come from PC or sojo and if you don't leave early and cue up you'll never get up. So how's it work? I'd imagine this year is slightly different due to not having the normal pow days before today. Bet tomorrow is just as bad.Quote:

It appears same at Alta. Good job ASP, but dayum did you have to open it all on a country club day? Leave some for us poor schlubs that were not able to get up today. Bet all those that made it were getting after it for sure.Quote:

Definitely not a country club day. Full parking lot at Alta and long lines until noon. Reason so much opened is because so much slid, natural and explosive triggered. Anything over 30 degrees slid to previous layer. Skiing was definitely good, but snow was thicker than excepted. Should be interesting to hear reports come in from the bc. If this didn’t trigger deep slabs, not sure what will.
Thanks for attempting to soften the blow. I was off today, but when the road reports started coming in and I wasn't in line before 8am I knew it was over for me. Bet it was fun for sure. Lines or not.Quote:

Plenty of fun to be had tomorrow.
5th chair on Condor today. 4 laps of thigh deep fresh tracks. Face shots just about every turn. Woot woot!
