utahdeafcarver Posted January 19, 2012 Report Share Posted January 19, 2012 Snowbasin got 15" over the last 24 hours. How's Park City faring, Martin? Other resorts, anyone? One thing for sure, it ain't "The greatest snow on earth." Too warm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SEJ Posted January 19, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 19, 2012 Martin, thanks for the tour of the hill and all your other help. Always great to get directions from a local. Don't worry, you carve those softies just fine. Tuesday was GREAT, but cold. Wednesday was overcast with a little snow, but warmer. Thursday, I'm shot, need a day off. Hope to get back to it Friday.

boardguru Posted January 19, 2012 Report Share Posted January 19, 2012 Snowbasin was fun today. Top half was good on runs and off. Then about halfway down the mountain if you ventured off into the untracked it was like suddenly throwing on the brakes. I managed to rag doll twice that way. But the snow is filling places in, and it was starting to snow again when I left around 2:00. Gonna go see what tomorrow brings. Yay, maybe winter is here now.

digger jr Posted January 20, 2012 Report Share Posted January 20, 2012 Thanks for the report Mick. Yes, if the forecast comes through we will be looking good, better late than never! Just the kind of snow we needed, heavy, wet, good to cover rocks. Let the grooming begin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SEJ Posted January 22, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 22, 2012 Friday morning was real sucky, wet, heavy snow falling. We checked the hour by hour report and it showed it clearing for the PM, so we just killed some time. Got on the hill around11:00, and it just got better and better. Cleared up, cooled down, snow firmed up, and we had a ball! Not looking forward to the drive home, wish I had a month off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emdee406 Posted February 2, 2012 Report Share Posted February 2, 2012 I'm really enjoying riding with the various BOL'ers that have passed through Park City on the hunt for snow... John was the latest. We had a good little crew yesterday morning, glad I got to get my SG out for a few turns! Good times. John...Great hanging out with you and your buddy. Thanks for visiting!

Sorry, I've ridden here 12 seasons and wouldn't go in there safely without another 36"+ dump! Still sketchy in the trees. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey Martin Nice meeting you too. It was great having four carvers together. That's probably the biggest posse I've ridden with in awhile. I'm heading over tomorrow (Friday) for our last day. Maybe we'll see you. For anyone wondering, the snow is great. John Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emdee406 Posted February 3, 2012 Report Share Posted February 3, 2012 I'm running an Instructors Clinic @10, so that gives me an hour to play. But for the sake of ease swapping over I'll have to be in softs...but I'll bring out the Oxess and we can make some turns if you're out early. Send me a text in the morning!
