2014/2015 Cottonwood canyons official thread

[WSMFskiing]

This thread is for inbounds and side country at Alta, Snowbird, Brighton, and Solitude. I'm sure someone will make one for out of bounds and the backside of the Satch.

The only opening days I've heard about are this Friday the 21st for Soli and Saturday the 22nd for the Bird.

Drove up to the Bird yesterday to pick up my pass, and coverage is spotty to say the least. But a friend convinced me to go hike to the boneyard in snake creek tomorrow so we'll see how that goes. Anyone else skiing yet?

JONG starting Utah thread?

Times have changed.

[mcclintock]

I wasn't going to say anything, but at least the thread is here now...

[skiATL]

I've been wondering when this thread would be here, but I didn't dare start it. I hope I'm wrong but Solitude's website is projecting the 21st as opening day. Brighton is having a rail jam Saturday, so I'll go up for that and then get my pass.

Been skiing a couple times at gaurdsman and snake. Hopefully it gets really snowy and there will be much more to ski than rails with hardly any snow.

Solitude has officially moved their opening day from the 14th to the 21st.

spotty or non-existent? know a snowmaker at the bird and he just said the only places to possibly make some turns are where the man-made is. patience ... its coming.

[WSMFskiing]

There's snow, but it's no skiable. Maybe an inch on the ground.

And to people complaining I made the thread, it needed to be done. But yes I saw that they moved their opening day back today. Bummed.

[skiATL]

I know it's more appropriate for newschoolers, but Brighton has a rail jam on Saturday. They also have their offices open so you can pick up your pass(their hours to pick up season passes are impossible for anyone with a job).

[mall walker]

May as well ask: what pass, if any, did you get?

I got the SolBright thingy. One of those fuckers better open up soon.

[Johnny Deep]

Winter has been cancelled in Utah. Move along, there is nothing to see here.

We don't need or want this thread, you fucking JONG. Shut up and ski.

[Bromontana]

Only guy I've seen ski this year has two first names. That said I will be attending the Higher Premiere tomorrow at the place somewhere in the valley. Convinced the gf with tales of sushi groove and a sake buzz. Glademaster - we should meet up for food/sake before the show. It'll be me, gf and maybe another few ppl depending

[JTrue]

You forgot to post the rules JONG, not wonder this thread has gone to shit already.

[snowaddict91]

Anyone gonna be at the bird Thursday afternoon for the early opening? I'll be there, yellow pants, blue flylow jacket, grey smith helmet. Say hi!

[Lone Star]

just picked up my One Wasatch pass today. the guns were blowing and there's plenty of snow for the weekend openings. with the 8 feet of snow predicted for this oncoming storm we're gonna start with a bang this season!

[skihost]

My One Wasatch pass is Snowbird Chairs and Solitude Everyday ....Now where to go opening day? (Work prevents me from going up for the pass holders and employees kick off party Thursday)

[skifishbum]

[BobMc]

Rolled solo today, used the singles line all day. Pretty funny to get on with some dudes who start talking about wanting to meet skifishbum, heh.

It's pouring at my house right now, tomorrow should be good. Itll be interesting seeing how every pass holding powder hound fits on Bassackwards to Emma.
