BOGLEY WINTERFEST JAN 30-31 '09

Thanks for the info Joe. Maybe I'll have to stop at the South Towne REI.

I will take a stab at the agenda and Chere or others can edit if they want.

Friday

Twilight/Night Skiing at Brighton 12:30-9 or 4-9 then bail whenever. Meet down near the bottom of the canyon at Bohemian Brewery in Midvale. About a 30-35 minute drive from the resort.

Saturday

Snowshoeing at Greens Pond 10:00 AM (Ogden area, map coming soon)
Tona's for sushi (best dam sushi in the state!)
www.tonarestaurant.com

I would be down for some night boarding and Bohemian. I'll ask ride on tonight if he's in too.
No for snowshoeing or sushi but I look forward to the reports :nod:

Though I've seen the question several times in this thread... I still don't know where Green's pond is!! A little help here!

It is near snowbasin ski resort

Directions

The Green Pond Trail begins at the upper parking lot of Snowbasin Ski Area. Follow the dirt road, locally known as the

Well, let's see...
Maybe, maybe maybe and maybe. haha. :-)

I might go ski at Brighton on Friday evening, although I've never skied there at night and only once during the day and feared for my life with all the seemingly out of control kids zooming by me all over the place... not my favorite place to ski. Where is the meeting place there? and what time?

I might go to Bohemian, but probably not unless I ski - I know I wont motivate to go out at 10:00 after sitting home and chillin' prior to that.

I pretty sure I wont go snowshoeing, although I'm bummed because I was really looking forward to that with everyone, but I know myself well enough to know that I wont drive all the way up to Snowbasin to snowshoe.

Which means I won't be doing sushi in Ogden either.

I, too, look forward to the reports, and wish I could participate more!!

I'm in, but pending. My wife is due in a week and a half, so I'll play it day by day.

I'll most definitely hit the dinners, and maybe skiing at Brighton at night.

I'll have to see how things are going when I go snowshoeing, I'll have to make sure I get cell service and all that good stuff, like an escape plan. :haha:

Alison is staying with me. You are welcome too, we can just have one big sleep over on Friday night. Then you will be motivated to join us for the snowshoe.

My kids beds are pillowtops and only a year old so they are comfortable and they will be with my mom.

I promise by sunday night I will have a map and pin more info down. Right now I am so busy with work, work and ski team I can't think.

We can meet at the same place as last time, in the cafeteria lodge. Right when you walk in the door there is restrooms straight ahead and a bulletin board where they post weather reports. We could meet there at 5:00 PM. This would give everyone a chance to get there and get settled. :2thumbs:

Thanks so much for the invite! Since I live right at the bottom of the mountain, it doesnt make much sense to drive to Ogden to sleep! :-) I think I may join up for Friday skiing though... I'm not sure how I compare in skill level to ya all though - This is my 4th year skiing - I can pretty much ski anything (although it aint pretty!) except I totally dont know how to ski in deep fresh powder yet!

dont know if anybody has already posted this. because i didnt want to read thru all 9 pages of posts....but

http://www.saltlakecityutah.org/skiutahlifttickets.htm

discount passes for brighton...alta also has a ski free after 3 thing...dont know how set every one is on brighton, but maybe we should try that...Also it sounds like some are doing the day thing and some the night, i was just wondering if in the spirit of unity and get togetherness maybe we should just do one or the other. just a thought

ummmmmmm........well............um, I think we've decided on Brighton? Right? Everyone? Are we cool with this? :ne_nau: I also think the majority's doing a night ski b/c most have to work on Friday day. I think we can easily find some unity and togetherness on Brighton. :2thumbs:

Yeah I think we are settled on Brighton. Thanks for the discount link though. I forgot that you could get a discount at Canyon Sports. Saving 7 bones works for me and I live near a CS. The cool thing about Brighton is that you can ski 12:30-9 ("Twilight") or a night pass from 4-9. :rockon:

3 feet of snow expected in the mountains this week!

We should have some fresh stuff and good weather by Friday-Saturday. :2thumbs:

Rain will continue as showers today, but will increase to periods of rain tonight and Sunday in the valleys. Rain will turn to snow on the Benches late Sunday and it will turn to snow in the valleys Sunday night. Snow will accumulate several inches by Monday morning, so expect a commuter special Monday morning. Snow showers will continue Monday afternoon and Monday night. Another weak storm system will bring a few snow showers on Wednesday and another very weak storm will brush by the area next weekend. Temperatures will be colder, but valley inversions are not expected to produce the unhealthy air quality this week like we had last week.
