    HATU

    My freinds back east always claim I live in Hatu instead of Utah because "the whole state is backwards" Seems to me with the revised liquor laws we were at least making progress but then this occurs. Received the latest Ski magazine and inside is an insert from the Ski Utah folks, ok fine. But once again these dim wits print their map with north at the BOTTOM. Not a big thing unless someone actually uses it and drives the wrong direction. Is there a logical reason other than they are just retards?

    Utarded man. Ski resorts are North Facing so in order to show them on a pretty map the view has to be South Facing.

    Brian Head is just a short drive away apparently. Cool.

    I assumed it had no good reason.

    to see the actual ski area you need to view it from the north - so the bottom of the hill is at the bottom - not upside down - but always the beaver needs to be at the bottom!

    When you're showing a perspective map (i.e. not from straight above), if your viewpoint is south looking north you only see the back side of mountains for the ski areas. You can't see any runs that way.

    Brian Head looks as big as AltaBird combined. Who knew?

    Edit: Why the fuck is it so hard to embed Youtube videos now?
