sethsev7n Posted May 17, 2004 Author Report Share Posted May 17, 2004 Yeah dave and another friend of ours came out for the first couple days of spring break just to hang out for a few days.. The 4th picture is from Mammoth.. and thats probably one of the steepest lines ive ever skiied yet.. that part was nuts. The guy, i forgot his name, but him and a few of his friends were all mogul skiers.. I think he actually does live in Colorado.. why does he look familiar sibhusky? And lol yeah he lived.. 2 of the guys in our group straighlined the whole thing I guess thats why they were pros.. pretty nuts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skidude Posted May 18, 2004 Report Share Posted May 18, 2004 Sib that is Snowbird....(not sure if you have been there), but you get off the tram ski down the backside a little, hang a right, and thats how you can get the pic. The skiing of were the pic was aiming is pretty freaking nice too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sibhusky Posted May 18, 2004 Report Share Posted May 18, 2004 Yes, I was there one day. Unfortunately, the day I was there every time I got to the top of the tram, even if the sky was blue at the bottom, it was socked-in whiteout at the top. Add to that a lot of rude snowboarders and I didn't have a good day. Decided to stay with Alta. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Decided to stay with Alta. alta does rock...we got quite a bit of snow when i flew out for the day...simply the best skiing in the US Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skidude Posted May 18, 2004 Report Share Posted May 18, 2004 Haha...I find it ammusing how even tho alta and snowbird are connected alta is considered SOOO Much better....But I never skied alta, only snowbird..>Good stuff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skidude Posted May 18, 2004 Report Share Posted May 18, 2004 Haha this is deffinatly true...But they have mostly slow lifts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ERS Posted May 19, 2004 Report Share Posted May 19, 2004 Who cares if they have slow lifts, there's NO SNOWBOARDERS! Hopefully I can make it out there next season Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skidude Posted May 19, 2004 Report Share Posted May 19, 2004 (edited) Well all I can say is I don't recall having many issues with them at any area. Mmmmm Lots of acers, not lots of people Edit: Also it seems like the boarders out there (and skiers) know what there doing, or they stay on the bunny slopes. Cause there are some lifts you don't want to get to the top of and only know how to snowplow Edited May 19, 2004 by skidude Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skimom Posted May 19, 2004 Report Share Posted May 19, 2004 The snow quality is best at Alta too. They have an optimal combination of lake effect and altitude. (plus no snowboards to scrape snow off groomed trails). The side of snowbird that abuts Alta is a pretty close second. They managed to have powder after a week of 70 degree weather. How? Beats me, but they had it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ski Posted May 19, 2004 Report Share Posted May 19, 2004 'Dude, I think it just SEEMS like people know what they are doing out West, but it's just an illusion of space. At CB, there are 347 skiers/boarders per square inch; out in Utah, there are 3 per square mile. Well, give or take. Take a look at Marjie's on a busy Saturday at 11am...picture that many people coating a slope at A Basin. It would look utterly ridiculous. You'd have to be insane to jump into that mess.
