Pretttty good on the Emma's this morning. Couple of small storm slabs ~10" deep. Somehow I still can never figure out where to ski over there.
heh. i'm usually in the same boat.Quote:

Snowbird was good if packed today.
It's a Wednesday. Doesn't anyone work in this town anymore?
I felt it was fairly uncrowded next door at Alta, skied great all day. I guess call the crowds moderate considering the forecast hype?Quote:

That aspen grove looks like a fun place to play.
Looks tasty. 🥲
Cold and windy. Lots of great turns and lots of weird ones. Was disappointed to not catch bass benches but walk on trams are better. Baldy gud. Good, cold winter vibe up herehttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...e0fb2c9234.jpg

In case it hasn't been clear in the thousands of comments I have posted here and previously on powmag in the last 20+ years; I fucking love Alta.
Watching my son rip around the resort I have loved for decades literally made me weep with joy.
^^^Nice!
So how bad is the snow up high after the nuclear winds today?
It was windy. But it was sunny. I stayed in the lower half of Snowbird after 1 run up Little Cloud. It actually wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. There was some soft snow even up high in the blowing, swirling winds. Snow softened up after noon.

Of course locals have special line privileges. It is called “Locals Prerogative” and allows cutting ahead of non-locals.Quote:

Crankskier, that's the backside of what was historically called Shane's Chute. Now called any number of things.
Offa the S ridge of Superior.
I always called it Shane's chute west...
Wow. Not blower pow. But a very unique ski photoQuote:
