Yes. sticking with flight. Just turning into more of a western mountain outdoors vacation. I would debate not even bringing ski gear but I leave it out there so, the question is what to do?
Fishing could be a go, I have a soon to be 12 and soon to be 14 boys so they are up for that. Oh well, first world problem when one of my 5 Utah trips is skunked.
On a lighter note, I was set for a Japan trip which timewise I don't think I can swing and my buddy keeps hammering my phone with massive dumpage in Hakuba. At least its snowing somewhere.

Gonna try first day at Alta Monday. Pm me if you want to get a few laps. Or look for neon pants and white helmet with green goat
I need to go to Utah.
Utah?
Yeah, Utah. It's wedged in between Wyoming and Nevada. You've seen pictures of it, right?
So after 15 years we finally made it to Utah.....
Thanks BCSAR and POWMOW Ski Patrol for rescues

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 tires.

link to the rules
https://rules.utah.gov/publicat/code/r920/r920-006.htm
As long as your tire has the M+S designation (studded or studless) you are good to go according to that link.
My Toyo A30 is an "all season" it carries the M+S rating. Maybe ill print this link out, highlight the rules, and keep in car. My buddies in a subbie got turned around this morning. Has brand new All Seasons. I'll bet they carry the M+S if I know this person like I think i do...
This will present a TOTAL clusterfuck on powder days unless they get this shit figured out FAST...

M+S designation is pretty laughable in terms of actual performance in those conditions.
Almost a useless standard to draft a law around.Is it radix panax notoginseng? - splat

Most all seasons I see have an M / S, M+S, M&S, etc rating. It's a design-based rating concerning the spacing of lugs, siping, etc.
3PMSF is what most consider the "real" snow rating -- as it is a performanced-based rating require the tire to pass specific tests on snow and ice. It's the standard required rating for places with serious traction laws like much of Canada.

how so? No accidents, never held anyone up behind me...hell never even had what i'd consider a loss of traction..
I grew up driving in one of the snowiest places in the US...Syracuse NY. Horrible snow removal, and deep snows seemingly out of the blue (lake effect). I've never run snow tires my entire life (im 46) regardless of location, nor has anyone in my entire family. I recall driving through that horrendous ice storm of the late 70's from CT to Syracuse, white knuckle for my dad for sure...no snow tires...made it just fine. Skills trump everytime, and if you're driving anything with true 4x4 and you need snow's its best you stay the fuck out of the mountains/snowy areas and maybe stick to Florida.

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

They were stopping every car at the mouth to "chat" this morning. All the LEO did was ask me if I had "good tires." Didn't even really look at them though and was inside his car.
I have snowflake sporting A/T tires and 4wd FWIW. Until you get into real deep snow FWD with real snow tires is better than AWD/4WD with all seasons IMO.
