Apparently main chute still goes. Someone skied it yesterday.

Latest I've skied main chute was mid August few years back. Novelty, but fun. Long walk out in August.

Sent from my XT1650 using...

As mentioned not typically until full ski operations cease. Once that happens waiver sign and ski main chute all day if ya like.

I heard mirror lake hwy closed. I'd check UDOT

how was the snow? How much actually fell up high?

It closed when we had that big storm couple weeks back. Avie danger was off the charts. Should be fine now.

According to the officer on the news. It was not impact as the area he was in did not have trees. Still not much more info.
RIP...

Sorry to hear about the fools in the bc.
Bird skied good. Felt the bottom a bit but plenty of soft to catch a turn past the crust. Bird patrol opened a lot. Alta skied best. Thanks for opening...

Wow really? Free huh?

Got a season pass anywhere? Think they do some sort of deal for passholder of other resorts? Maybe just local resorts though not sure. $45 KSL sounds good. Likely won't find better without an inside...

I was there for about 90% of Frank and didn't see any naked lady backflips. A few naked dudes, but no ladies.

I have heard zero new info on this. I had heard the same thing, but am skeptical. I was thinking slip and fall. I did hear the person was sober, which honestly shocked me. Saw more than one on top...

Broken femur on airlift. Apparently sober too. Vibes

Frank. From punk rock. Couple casualties taken away in sleds.

Big news is dude who either fell slipped or was otherwise being dumb fell off the rocks top of high boy. Needed life flight. Props to...

I put most of those springy mrr in the "explodomats" category. Sorry for the mistake though, but that was hardly the point 😀

I had soccer so didn't show at Alta til 1. About same today as we have Alta Easter egg hunt at 11. Ski ya round

Looking forward to more shenanigans like these 2 I caught today for tomorrow's festivities

2 guys, 2 sets bindings, 1 long set of straight ass skis. Went much better than I thought it would. They...

See can't be possible cause I'm the best skier on the Mtn. Will keep an eye out for a onsie and ask for change but there might be quite a few onsies.

wish i knew would be nice to take a few laps with a mag i havent met. Im sure we likely passed each other somewhere along the lines.

Same here...to effin good to stop for pics....i got all of...

Those damned elitist powder princess pricks..How dare they? I hope you jammed one of them in a corner real tight.

So they dropped mineral eh? How was the snow in there? Least it didnt go to total...

If that really. I don't know if they ever dropped mineral today but it was closed most of it. If they didn't that's totally wasted snow now.
Good storm lasted a lot longer than I thought today....

Honest mistake. Alta had 16" as of 5am. Maybe some more now as it's been snowing it appears.

Damn I been here 10 years. Germicide opened 2 times.

I know they had pipeline, but did they allow germicide too? Guess if it's open to pipeline and germicide goes well.... Keep the gear in the car next time.

Fucking site needs a like button. Nice job Brutah

Best snow was off supreme and out Catherine's. Pasty lower was fantastic. I second sloppy below 9k. Changed from good to bad fast. Snow was good off sugarloaf too.

Sundance for sure.

Alta was great this morning. Timed the rope drops pretty much perfect. Hit it fast kinda day. That time of the year damned sun.

yeah the sun and the rocks will play there, and i'd agree its not really technical in your pics, probably why you straightlined out...adrenaline was wanted. Fun line though without doubt...

Nice...that line is NEVER that full....nice score...anytime ive skied that boy it was tight. looks super fun there.

Imagine it covered in blower pow. It's even more fun. Springs good there though for sure.

The skiing will be fine. Not pow but good steep chalk. Follow the sun

Save your money. Shovels are cheap packs are a dime a dozen round here and a beacon is something you should just have.

If you're pow starved and it won't end in divorce or job loss. STAY.

Ha I have personally kicked off a slide in that same spot and it closed Peruvian for like an hour. Total accident. They really shouldn't even let you ski up above that.

That's the best part. Right down to the lower lot if done right.

But therein lies the problem. Too deep no pitch means not turning much and turning in pow is the best part. Still a fun spot. Great vibe. Mellow. Tacos at hidden lake Lodge. Mmmm

Wed snowbasin would be my go. Powmow just doesn't have a ton of pitch. Basin has some decent steeps. Powmow isnt a bad call though.

As for not choking on snow. Buff or balaclava over mouth breathe normally. Today you needed it. Scored my first Alta country club day ever. Tits deep and 100 cars made it up roughly. Ski on all day...

Can't speak for bird only assume. Alta is skiing great. Very filled in.

Holy fuck. You needed a chain saw. Good on ya for ensuring that without killing yourselves or each other.

maybe look at a map? Pretty damned easy to orient yourself on a compass in SLC...the big ranges are east and west....you can figure the rest.

As for north facing..well AltaBird has a bunch of...

Nice skis...glad the roof stuff worked out...might need to talk to you about some siding this spring if you're willing and able..Whenever I hear people needing roof/construction work I think about...

My apologies for offering your potential services...enjoy the trip..

Really sorry to hear about the furkid. Ive had a tough run with that myself lately and the nearly 13 yr old is not looking...

Skifishbum does have a job, but he would be the first I would try to enlist. Dude swings a hammer and I am sure has a ton of tools. He's not far from you and might let you do some work right in his...

I don't know about a guide or whatever, but that place should be crazy good tomorrow. Like 40" since anyone's skied it.

All day closure? Don't know that I ever seen that.

It sure reads as if dude that wasn't caught didn't do any type of beacon search

I had the chute lookers left slide on our group (I was not skiing, no one hurt), but that's the whole friggin Ridgeline. Someone was watching these 2. Scary shit.

Wasn't trying to offend more like give advice. Have fun and be safe. I've seen that area claim at least one ACL and a few worse injuries. I'm sure there might've been a few good turns in there

You new to town? That zone is shark city until we get a few good dumps.

Jtrue woof woof...those turns look deep and delicious.
