Another season of sitting in traffic...

Are you new here? ;)

"By scaling back the number of proposed lodging units, development can occur in smaller phases, DeSeelhorst said. No other changes to the resort master plan will be made....

Could Snowbird's new app help with canyon traffic, perhaps?

I'd say it can't hurt, at least they're trying.

Kids are welcome...

Training for BBIULCC was had.

New Alta stickers were handed out by at least one Snowbird patroller.

All the cool kids are doing it, I bought my next year's pass on March 12th. Just another way to try and lock their customers in.

Back when my oldest son used to ski, nearing the top of Grannies, summer 2014. Taken by my buddy Travis, I was much too lazy to go along that day.

...and a canyon closure 6:00am to 8:00am, hello massive traffic.

Same here, hit the LCC at 7:30, minimal traffic. What did suck was getting to the tram line at 8:00, four rows back, solidly on first. Sit there for an hour watching early ups go up, multiple laps. ...

If you're new to the scene their season pass for next season became available today (Snowbird), and it includes skiing for the rest of this season. Nother bonus is if you buy your next season's pass...

Holy fuck, that shit was silly. The Baldy Bash was kicking at the Tram Club last night, I was amazed Snowbird Ski Patrol pulled off a Sunday Funday for the books!

Shot my buddy Travis got of me....

Snowbird Ski Patrol is putting on the "Baldy Bash" at the Tram Club Saturday night. $20 gets you in, two drinks, and an entry into the raffle. Starts 7:00pm.

When the fuck did I say anything about steep? I like skiing Deer Valley, I don't like Park City. Sorry if it offends you for some reason. I'm kinda confused as to who is coming off as the bro brah?

It ain't fake, I stand by my opinion. You may feel otherwise, but that's what opinions are about.

On another note, got a text from a buddy this evening he has a room at the Cliff Friday and...

I think I'd rather pay to ski Deer Valley than ski for free at Park City.

Bambi Basin was a good call today.

I came by the Big about 8:20 this morning. It was backed up almost to the rental shop.

Back in the day they used to tow people up there with a snowmobile. If your ass fell off, too bad for you.

I'm feeling pretty good, I scored a chair for the 2 1/2 hour wait, thanks for the...

Where was everyone?

Strong work.

Tomorrow should be good. I'm supposed to be working but instead I'll be finding myself somewhere near the front of the tram line.

I've been playing the canyon drive crap for 23 seasons now. Every year it seems to have gotten a bit busier. I'm the problem, I'm the average dedicated skier living in the valley. I drive my car up...

If even Skidog is skiing the LCC tomorrow I think that's my cue to use a Deer Valley day.

He didn't save that shit. They were winching him out of the trees when I went by. (Upside down)

"If you're a ski bum and you don't ski you're just kind of a bum."

Happy New Year, fuckos.

I've been cat skiing quite a few times and letting clients decide the rules typically isn't the scenario. If you find yourself in an operation that operates with such rules perhaps you should...

Umm, yeah, ok.

Trails full of kooks with no way to get away from them= Early stoppage and a venture into the oc. Parking lot, that is.

Snack game, strong.
...

Line of the day from some guy standing near me after I handed Dave Fields (Standing next to me on the first tram) and the tram operator a candy bag, "Are you in upper management?" "No, I'm just an...

It was nicer today, but Harper's was a much better call than Harper's East. Stixlife, yo.

I skied with that guy today.

Level 9 and SFB for the win, thx for the Solirides. Good to see Iceman and mate on the hill, conditions aren't stellar, but they are smile inducing.

Fun to be on first tram today, familiar faces...

The guy rips, I see him on the tram pretty much every day I'm there, or riding his bike up the canyon.

According to the interpretation here, yes, a 2wd car with all seasons as long as they say M&S is good to go.

I think you'll find the guy at the mouth will think different.

He also said the officer made him turn his wheel so he could look at the tread.

UPD gave my buddy a hand out.

It does say “snow tires” with M&S designation, not any tires with M&S designation. ...

My 330xi with Blizzaks gets around WAY better than my 3/4 ton 4x4 Chevrolet with all seasons.

Buddy went up this morning, was stopped at the mouth of LCC and told that the snow tires or chains law will be strictly enforced this season. Even 4x4 or awd needs to have snows or chains on two...

I fail to see it "gimmicky" that Snowbird did their best, opened up for three days and had to shut back down. I like to ski, any time the resort I give my money to allows me to do that I consider it...

I got three days in, you? I got to talk to a lot of faces I hadn't seen since June, you? I got a kick ass foam finger, a game day tee shirt, and some bubbles, what'd Alta give out?

Mostly...

Parked next to Junior the last two days. Word is the Bird is done until more snow.
