Now that is Supergoat terrain Tuco. Is that sidecountry?
Wolverine Cirque. Not even 1/2 of it
i wonder if i could falling leaf from the top
Depends. Sometimes way faster than you'd like, but on this dayAttachment 244811saw nobody and heard 0 voices. The skiing was fantastic. It's definitely not the old days round here anymore tho.
We’ve got people who can teach ya.Quote:

Unlimited days at Solitude on the Ikon pass means I'm going to try to attend this Utaharded BBI event.
Yep, that addition makes it really tough to say no to driving up that way.Quote:

with this being the case, why would anyone buy a solitude or brighton season pass or the big cottonwood (like i did) when all you need is the ikon and you can hit also jackson and then mammoth in the spring, plus you have your alta/bird passes?Quote:

Other than that we'll find a place for anyone who needs
talked w a fairly high up at brighton today, they were definitively concerned w all the new ikon and max pass that travelling people were going to try and park in the lots. not to beat a dead horse regarding parking up canyon, but spread the heads up to friends if they are thinking about this option.
As in, people trying to camp up there?Quote:

It may be that most/many/some of the parking lots are in avalanche paths? If interlodge becomes an issue that could become a headache fast.
Also, almost all of these resorts have base area lodging, which PNW resorts do not have, so they have an incentive to not allow overnight camping.
yeah sorry, parking overnight. potentially lots of people using the new passes and thinking they will park and camp. i think there is a potential solution down the road, and i see the pitfalls etc. just a heads up to people if they are unaware of the situationQuote:

I Just wanted to say,. 'Thank you' ! !!!

Definitely can't pass up attending my first BBI when it's on our local hills. I'm inking those dates now!
As for traveling Maggots looking for a place to stay, we "most likely" have rooms for a few folks (still need to get the official buy in from the SO). We live in the PC area (just off I-80 near the top of Parley's Summit, not all the way into downtown PC), so you'd probably want a car to drive back and forth between our place and the Cottonwood Canyons, SLC and/or PC. Also, since we're gonna get one of those sweet Utah spring storms that week, a 4x4 or AWD ride is highly recommended.
Similar to SkiFishBum, couples and/or maturity get higher priority for a room.
PM me if yer interested.
checking further into utah.Quote:

So far the list is one Odd Duck, maybe a hermit and a ton of Maggots.
What a crew...Gonna be rad fun.
FWIW - I hear some trepidation out there on ' not being able to hang'. I hope no one feels they can't participate 'cuz they're not experts. (triple negative). BBI 18Boze proved out with a lot of experts skiing casually with new friends.
I would continue to encourage less likely players to really work to make this onto their calendar. It's snow and mountains and ski bums and partying and meeting new people who love what you love.
It's worth the hassle. Buy the ticket. Take the ride.
What about dogs?Quote:

The Peruvian may have a number of watershed tags on file to loan to visiting dentists.
In general, having dogs in the canyons is not allowed. I believe the fine for a violation is $650.
agreed, i'm fat and lazy,Quote:

"those who do not learn history, are doomed to repeat it" gs.
Unfortunately, our older dog does not play well with other dogs; hell, she barely tolerates our younger dog. So while Maggots are welcome, visiting pups won't work at my place.Quote:

To be fair, almost no resort in the rest of the Rockies allows camping in thier lots like they do in the PNW. In Colorado it's Wolf Creek and maybe a few other small places like Powderhorn, Monarch etc. I know you can't at Jackson, assume you can't at Big Sky. Maybe Bridger you can?Quote:
