Snow Conditions

1. Packed Powder
2. Ice

I guess I'll start this thread for little updates on my western skiing this winter, mostly from Utah, but probably other areas too.

5 Dec 2025, first day of the season for me, at Solitude, UT. Pretty decent crowd, Friday being the new Saturday, but of course only Moonbeam (650' vert) and Link (beginner lift) chairs were running. If more lifts were open it would not have felt so crowded. Singles line only took about 5 mins. Supposedly 1-1.5 feet new snow coming tonight and tomorrow.



WROD

I've had a couple of good groomer days at Snowbird this week, Dec 9 and 11, 2025, skiing the WROD at Snowbird. No fresh snow, but 3000' of vert on decent manmade snow. Low crowds, walk-on tram rides, and mild weather. Too mild. We need a change in weather pattern to get more terrain open.


New The Nest Restaurant at the old Mid-Gad location. Lots of glass and fire pits!
