Ah-hah! That was quite a light show to wake up to for the night shift. What time did the call come in? Props for getting that work done in the dark.

**brutah** · 04-17-2021, 08:27 PM

High north sure did deliver today and I bet if you narrowed the scope of your compass tomorrow it would deliver tomorrow as well. I hope some of y'all got some, I'll post some pics during the work week.

Heard through that baldy chutes will be the soup du jour tomorrow. If you see the best skier on the mountain give a holler

**Dantheman** · 04-17-2021, 08:59 PM

I wasn't expecting much with my twilight pass but Brighton was still skiing great 2-4. Landings out the Milly bowl gate were still cold pow. Should have brought the Gopro. And no red snake going down.

**tBatt** · 04-17-2021, 09:02 PM

Devil's Castle, East Castle, Castle Apron all skied extremely well.

Baldy should be fun tomorrow.

**Lone Star** · 04-17-2021, 09:49 PM

Perlas looks $$$$$ A great way to end the season. Free ride Alta nice, kids!

**jtran10** · 04-18-2021, 07:15 AM

FKNA !!! First live music in over a year. Stonefed never disappoints. Oh and skiing was good too, walk on 25 person trams doesn’t suck. The dude that tomahawked down the forbidden zone, that was sick, thanks for the entertainment.

What is the timeline for good Uintas BC access? What should I be expecting for, for example, Mirror Lake Highway opening? Is there good spring skiing around the north?

the Uintas are a little tricky because UDOT starts plowing and allows access while they plow but they don't give updates for how far they've gone. They also don't plow mirror lake hwy with any sort of urgency and I have seen them just let it melt out more or less. IMO once the plows reach trial lake you can start accessing mt watson, the notch etc. Getting to Bald mountarin pass gives you some more options and once they reach hayden lake/highline campground/trailheadd you should be able to get to most easy objectives off the road.

I'm no expert but it seems like around memorial day is the general rule for getting up there

Q. As an Alta Season Passholder will I need to pay for weekend & holiday parking reservations?
No, as a valued Alta season passholder you will weekend & holiday parking reservation benefits. *MidWeek, 80+, Ages 7-12 and 6 & Under will not receive complimentary parking.

Parking Details Coming Soon >

Alta pass pricing out. $1099 + tax

**Shaaarrrp** · 04-21-2021, 09:54 AM

Did the season price go down? Could've sworn I saw $999 for midweek and $1499 for full. Maybe that was a late price for this season?

**jtran10** · 04-21-2021, 09:57 AM

early season last year was 999 for alta only, and I think 1499 for altabird. so prices went up for alta only.
