Must admit after skiing pc with some people who flew in for the week...
It was pretty damn good. 9990 and jupiter were pretty awesome...
I guess its tough to beat driving 18 minutes there..to 2 to 3 hours to lcc when its dumping.
Have to think about this more.

DV is expanding...hoping it goes up in value and we get some rental income.

You hadnt heard Kamas is going to ban rentals?

They've been talking this for a while now, and it sounds like it's a go.

Park City needs to ban STR next, > 70% of housing is vacant (STR, 2nd homes, investments, etc...).

Didnt get up there, but 9990 kicked by A yesterday. 94 Turns to Talus Garden had me rethinking my dedication to leg workouts.
I’ve only been down 94 turns 3 or 4 times and once was on a snowboard. Not a fan of that trail unless its got a foot+ of fresh snow.

Three words: Mirror Lake Highway. I can’t believe how much traffic has increased up there.

I have no way to judge since I'm new here, but we go up there a decent bit since it's so close & I never thought it was all that terrible. Only issue I think I've noticed is weekend afternoons returning to civilization you can get bigtime jammed-up in a long line because of the one road and the traffic light on Center Street. If that's the case, the cure for this is to stop and have dinner at The Notch Pub in Samak, we have precious few dive bars on the Wasatch Back.
