Christmas Break in Snowy Utah

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!

    There’s too much snow, these pics are useless. I can’t tell if Kate is on her new gotamas or not.

    Great pics. Thanks for sharing – looking forward to a west coast trip to A-basin and surrounding area, but it seems like you FIS people only go to Utah? Yes? In any case share some snow with us in the east……..

      We don’t only ski in Utah, but it sure is a nice place to go!

      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!
