    Utah No cheap lodging in Alta/Snowbird

    Hello, Im planning a trip for next year to Alta/Snowbird around February and every hotel is either $500+ or 15 miles away. $500 is way above my budget for a hotel.

    Utah Alta/Snowbird Unofficial Guides?

    Does anyone have access to the unofficial guides for Alta and Snowbird that used to exist on EpicSki? I used them last season to acquaint myself with the resorts, and they really mapped out a nice approach to skiing these places. I have an upcoming trip with a couple of LCC noobs, and wanted...
