I have three days there from my season pass to my local mountain. It's an 8 hour drive. If they have good snow, is it worth going and sleeping in the car and skiing for 3 days? Or would it be better to save the gas and spend it on a lift ticket somewhere between Denver, Jackson and slc (all much closer)?

have you looked at the trail map?

It's FLAT.

i can do about half a day there before i get bored.

Yeah but I couldn't tell. It looked small but potentially fun.

I guess that's a no then. Having free days is so tempting. Too bad for the resorts that I'm the worst customer - I sleep in my car and pack my own food haha

We've spent a couple 2-day trips down there in the past. if it's dumping, it's actually quite nice; mellow angle pow, some nice exploratory areas and barely any traffic. It is relatively flat, as compared to other steep and deep locations, but overall it's worth a look, at least once, IMHO.

Thanks. Would you say it's worth an 8 hour drive? The trade off is that for the gas, I could go somewhere I've never been and buy a lift ticket, or take a big backcountry trip somewhere closer (eg the Tetons)
