Tim, Peircey and I were fortunate to hit up Snowbasin on Wednesday morning. My suggestion: If the the Cottonwood Canyons are closed head north. We left Salt Lake City at 8:15 a.m. and arrived at Snowbasin by 9:00 a.m.
Snowbasin opened with 15 inches of new powder snow and it just kept dumping! We mostly skied off of the John Paul lift so that we could stay in the trees and maintain visibility. Who ever new that the Men’s Downhill course from the 2002 Olympics would make such a sick powder stash. Check out our footage of the day!
After skiing we enjoyed a very tasty lunch at Earl’s lodge. Don’t miss out on Snowbasin’s tasty pizza’s, soups and stirfry.

Hi Jessica -
We hit Snowbasin on Thursday morning and enjoyed around another 12″ or so of powder overnight. It seemed like there were only 2-3 groomed runs and fresh tracks were all over the resort. Although, I must say that the traverse at the top of Strawberry scares the crud out of me when it is blowing at gale force. =)
Kendall owes me a couple of season passes - I promised in December to bring out snow with me this week, and I delivered. =)
Enjoy the rest of the season - the Ninety Nine 90 area over at Canyons is rocking right now as well.

Thanks for the tips and the snow Douglas. I continued to ski at Deer Valley, Alta/Bird and Beaver Mountain the rest of the week and all were skiing great! The snow can keep coming in my opinion. It is getting better and better every day.
