good for you dude. super jealous of my western friends bagging early season turns.
i've been meaning to @ you to ask about snowbasin. we are going to utah feb 7-16. one day at deer valley, four at alta/bird, two at sol/bright. we're ikon blacked out the last few days, and reserved a (wildly inexpensive) condo in eden, and are planning on powmow for 2 days, hopefully with a couple cat runs.
question(s) for you - what is the story with the powmow $20 per run cat skiing? and should we be sacrificing one powmow day for snowbasin?

Are you on some kind of ski-every-month thing?10/31 ABasin, Day 1, 13th month
Bluebird Sunny 25 degrees, packed powder. 2 trails, some bumps.

You can walk in 5 minutes as far as the cat skiing. Complete rip-off. Compared to what you get (for $5!) at Keystone, it's really eye opening
Do not (repeat DO NOT) waste a day at Powmow if you could go to Snowbasin. The reason Powmow keeps snow is that it's flat with old, slow lifts, so no one (in their right minds) goes there when there's great areas around. Only issue with Snowbasin is that sometimes it gets clouds around the Strawberry gonjola, so pick your days(s) right.
Also be advised that Brighton is a real boarders hill with all of the negative connotations that conveys. Almost got hit (multiple times), A-holes with backpack speakers, just a real crap-show of why Alta is so pleasant.
Once you go to the Bird, you'll never be able to do least coast skiing again.
cool. ive been to all the utah places many times except for powmow and snowbasin. i'm familiar with brighton. i dont mind snowboarders whatsoever.
