Hey Folks,
I'm looking to ID a small number of powder skis to demo next year. Hoping more experienced hands here can help me narrow the list. Thanks in advance for any tips.
Here are the specs:
1. They should be good at both Alta (East Greeley, West Rustler, etc.) and also mellower/slower...

Stealing this thread idea from @Ron at Steamboat and plagiarizing him too:thumb:

Hi, I hope I'm posting this in the correct place. I searched the forum and found some good info but still had a couple questions I thought maybe people here could help with.

I know we have at least a few physicians who frequent here. This is a pretty neat article about a doctor who wanted to combine medicine with his love of skiing.

Hello
I have been doing a bit of reading about skiing in Utah (I'm from out of state).
I seem to notice indirect comments or references about / against the Cottonwoods and Park City / Dear Valley.
There seems to be some type of rivalry or stereotype or competition or love / hate feelings...

Sorry in advance if this specific type inquiry isn't allowed. Headed to a conference beginning of Feb at the Alta Lodge but it's sold out. I need to be walking distance since it's 7am class. Goldminer's daughter or Pervuian? Any other suggestions? There's about $400 difference for the 4 night...

Curious what is typical for Alta, Snowbird, Brighton, Solitude, and Deer Valley by November end. Will the resorts be open, will there be good coverage on the groomed runs, and approximately what % of blues will be open in each of the resorts by then? Also, will some of the resorts above be...
Does anyone know of a place in Little Cottonwood Canyon to fill airbag cartridges?
We will be landing in SLC around 4:30pm (which will feel like 5:30 to us), so we want to head up to Snowbird straight away to get dinner and get my kids in bed at a decent time, not driving around SLC hanging...

Hi,
Wondering if there are any (former) patrollers on here who can explain Inbounds Avalanche Danger to me.
This past Monday we skied Alta and Snowbird. Avalanche danger was rated “considerable’ for the Upper Cootnwoods backcountry. Most noted danger was windslab. It continued snowing and...

Am I reading this correctly? If you go to the second paragraph is talks about the 19/20 Mountain Collective pass. Does this mean it is locked in again? I certainly hope so. I plan on using it in NZ this August and then US in early 2020 if it is...
Monday Februry 4 I will have 2/3 a day to ski (catching a plane back in the early evening).
We have an Ikon pass.
We skied several days at Brighton and Solitude last year.
My wife and I are staunchly intermediate skiers, with no interest (or ability) for the extreme stuff.
Do you think it’s...

We are self taught skiers and have been skiing for the last few years. Taos is the place we have frequented the most. We live in TX, so logistically Taos works out the best. Although, we could cover most trails in places like Massanutten, in Taos we can only do its green runs comfortably. Their...

So, I hit what I consider the best jackpot possible at work. I'll have a work-paid trip to Salt Lake City during winter! Of course, this means a chance to sneak in a day or two on the mountain.
Basically, I plan to stay in a hotel Friday night, ski bell-to-bell on Saturday, and then catch an...
