From my flight last night...somewhere east of Salt Lake City
This is absolutely NOT an awesome snowboard run.

How high are those peaks? It seems awfully wide to be a snowboard track. Plus there are virtually no turns. I'm guessing it was something going up rather than down (a snowmobile perhaps? - even that seems unlikely...). Do you have a higher res pic?

looks like a road to me, perhaps for snowcats taking skiers up?

I might buy that one. The high res image should be interesting.tree_skier said:

Beautiful!
:idea: How about posting it over at www.earnyourturns.com? I would not be surprised if someone on that site knows the mountain range and can explain what it is. I'd say road, but why? So I'll go with cat track.

Come on folks. This is just a typical mountain range in the Great Basin area. I'm guesing somewhere in Utah (Oquirrhs west of SLC?). Look closely and you will see radio towers atop the peak at the end of the road. You will see these radio tower installations all over the place in the West. They are all serviced by dirt roads. The track may be accentuated by snowcat/snowmobile traffic. BTW that would be a really lame snowboard line, as it does is traverse across the peaks/faces. A good line would be straight down (watch for avalanches!) one of the drainages to the valley floor.
