Though things can get kinda kinky at the Canyons, so be ready.

i like the Bird, but it is the only place i've ever skied is Utah

Oh yeah, get the f-in Bird pass!!

edit: just remember i went to solitude one great day last season

Bird defenitely has better terrain than Alta. and alot more stuff to jump off of. just don't rip around there until there's a hundred inch base unless you want to fill in 3 different core shots the next day. tram runs on zero vis days are also not that fun

Get the Bird pass. That is all.

Best thing about the Canyons: backcountry access

I plan to be at the Bird on the board on Sat, Dec 18 for the MINI.

Or I may ski suck, depend of conditions, but if we have some boarders there, I will follow suit most likely.

Will only have a few days on skis (maybe, snow and moola dependent) before that, but getting on the board is like riding a bike.

AND what is this IF shit???

And having never been to Alta and have had a ton of fun at the Bird, I like Snowbird better too.

I say go for the pass! If money is really that tight just get a ten pass for now.

I'll be at the Bird on Saturday for sure. I don't know where I'll be on Sunday though. What kind of play are we talking about here

aha! and the war has begun. I agree with ya MD9! as for the pass deal, until moving to WA and Alpe last year- I spent the previous 5 winters with a 'Bird/Canyons set up. That was purrrfect! Nice to have both options available. Two totally distinct areas. But then again, I lived in PC and would head up to the Can when time was either crunched or the one day/week I was too lazy to make the 35 minute trip to the 'bird. And for the $500 price, you can't go wrong, provided you can make at least 12-15 days at The Bird.

I always liked skiing bonus days in April/May/... at the Bird

Heh, that's not going to buried or anything.....another brilliant moment of terrain park design at the canyons.....god i hope that's a mt. bike feature.

That being said......I'll probalby be there every day i'm in utah this winter, either on the mt. or in the shop.

I think the kink gets kinda low but the end is about waist-high through the winter. It is the Canyons, after all.
