That looks encouraging. Was that Deer Valley? We're supposed to head to DV a week from Thursday, and I have been monitoring the weather and open lifts/trails closely. Seems like the snow from the past week helped them get some of the new terrain open.

Temps look to be heading into the 40s this week, so I hope they can keep some trails/lifts on the new side open. We're staying the the Grand Hyatt and not being able to ski back would be a bummer. That said, our flights/hotel are on points so I can cancel or reschedule if conditions take a turn for the worse.

Snowbasin. They don’t like my kind at Deer Valley

It was still good today, but hard to predict what it will be like in 10 days with no snow. Hopefully they can keep making snow and keep it groomed for ya.

You're in good company. My son is of your kind, which is one of the reasons he is not making this trip.

Fingers crossed for snow...or at least favorable snow making conditions.

At other resorts, we quietly talk shite about you boarders behind your back. At Deer Valley, we do it out in the open.

This is just one run, 0zGFS but things are certainly looking up towards February

Anyone ever used My Epic Gear?
Looking for some logistics help... and if off-renting and on-renting before and after no-ski days is worth it.

Park City Mountain will host two community dinner and ski nights, Feb. 6 and March 13, offering a $10 meal at Legacy Lodge and $10 skiing; skiing is free for those with an EpicPass, but participants still must register. These two nights are open to the first 500 who register.

Then, on Friday, Feb. 27, the National Ability Center will host its Friday Night Lights Ski-a-Thon event, a special fundraiser helping veterans, service members and their families to continue accessing adaptive recreation. More info on that event is available on the center’s website.

Let's hope so, it's bad here in CO. I haven't even had the urge to go up the hill for some turns yet. Half the terrain is still closed, everyone that booked trips (tourists) are packed into a handful of runs on crap snow, lines are ridiculous, etc.

Hard pass on all that. Hoping for at least a decent February/March at this point.

Will be my first time since I started snowboarding about 7 years ago I haven’t been on a trip. Going to at least try to make a day trip my state is not the best for the sport

Didn't know they put in lights. That's cool. Gives another option for night skiing besides powder and brighton. But it's just payday lift so brighton is still gonna be the much better option

Man, it's a sad day when the last post on the Ski Thread prior to this was 5 days ago. It will snow more in Florida this week than in Park City. FML

Its rough up here dude. Copper is 55% open and if its not a groomer they can make snow on, rocks and trees remain exposed.

Its a miserable forecast going forward. I like a half a foot here at Copper with the storm on Friday but after that? Garbage.

My expectations are very low, Steamboat does seem a bit better than Summit county. I'll make the most of it, I need to escape the frozen tundra for a while.

DO yourself a favor if you're traveling to Park City Main Street this year; stop at Kemo Sabe and hit the speakeasy. They do a better high West old Fashioned than High West does.

The idea of you going to Colorado to warm up makes me laugh. Even in these depressing times.

2 weeks since last snow here. According to the weather apps, it will be at least 3
