I know that it is traditionally crowded, but I may just head up for a day or two. I told my 5 year old that I would take him up to Alta to play on the rope tows. :snowguy:

good idea :2thumbs:
more snow ... more snow ... mutterings of a madman ... more snow more snow
I think I will just go snowshoeing!
Accadacca we should get our two kids together so they can have fun on the rope tow and we can hit the rest of the mountain!Quote:

Definitely not me. Maybe by March. :sad:
I went to Solitude today... ohhhhhhh sooooo goooood. Not a ton of people and fresh tracks off Powder Horn, then fresh tracks off Summit... then around eleven fresh tracks in Honeycomb. :nod:

Let it snow, Let it snow, Let it snow!!

I ride every sunday and powder day.... and a few more in between. My ankle is up to 80% so I ready to ride this year!
That may be true, but I think the majority are skiing on the other days, not on Christmas day and not on Sundays. I've never found it to be crowded on Christmas day and it's never crowded on Sundays. Just my experience.Quote:

Crazy... It was pretty slow at sundance on Saturday as well. :ne_nau:
The Saturday before Christmas is the busiest shopping day of the year, probably a good Saturday to go.
The whole week has been awfully quiet, and today at Snowbird was no exception. They were sending singles up Gadzoom at 9:45 a.m. I arrived at 9:15 and got first row parking just west of Creekside.
