Christmas Break in Snowy Utah
By: Ben
December 29, 2010
Two days later we checked out Cardiff Fork. The snow was a little wind-affected, but there was still good skiing to be had!
The bluebird was replaced by a few inches of snow to sweeten the deal…
We spied a good looking line from across the valley…
Dug a pit a the top to evaluate the snowpack…
And proceeded to Make Schuss down the chute!
Me standing right below the choke
Mark styling the narrows
And down to the apron!

In this case, my girlfriend (Kate) is working at Alta, so a trip to Utah was a no-brainer…
Fortunately for you, Summit County has also been having a great start to the season (although there is almost no snow east of the Continental Divide), so you should have a good western trip!
