Dec 2011

Skied fresh snow every weekend in January and February. Better snow than my brother was getting in Salt Lake. (And I called every weekend from the lift to let him know it too.) Last year they were open about 2 weeks total, IIRC. They are totally dependent on natural snow, and thus the jet stream and El Nino effects. Highly variable. Not open yet this year, I think there's only been the one significant storm so far, but I haven't been up the mountain in almost two months. Need to get the mtb and the trail running shoes out....
