its the best part about alta, you don't have worry about those idoits who whip the bar down before you even leave the station, last saterday at wildcat i got hit in the head 4 times. Its actually the main reason why I always wear a helmet.

Boy, that Utah weather is just awful, isn't it - ????

Glad you had fun - !!!!!!!!

Yeah, it is awful. There was one day that it hit 60 at the base, yet there was no slush. From what I heard the moisture in the snow is so low that the water evaporates as quick as the snow melts. Pretty weird.
