Today was pretty amazing. We hiked the Peak 5 access gate and Square-Top. Square-Top was just blower powder. The kind you choke on. Steep and Deep. I'll post some pics soon.
Feel free to hit me up if you want company. I usually hit Nordic a few times a season with friends. It’s cheap and I like the vibe there. Also I have a handful of 50% off basin passes and 25% off ikon resort passes.I got out on the board a couple times last year. I need to get out more this year. No season pass for me, I'll probably be headed up to Nordic Valley most times I go.
This is why I drive up to Nordic Valley. $20-30 passes, most days, and the atmosphere was incredible before the barn burned. I haven't been since but I hope they try and recreate that feel.Too expensive too many people too much traffic. Thanks Utah tourism board and Olympics
The couple times I went last year was weekdays and passes were under $20. For anyone that only gets out a handful of times a year and isn’t looking for big mountain runs Nordic is the place.This is why I drive up to Nordic Valley. $20-30 passes, most days, and the atmosphere was incredible before the barn burned.

My 11 y/o is doing Snow Blitz this year. It's $450 and I'm freaking out that he picked snowboarding instead of skiing because I'm concerned he'll quit due to the difficulty.
I miss my days of riding at the Canyons. Free the first year, $60 the second, $80 the third etc etc etc. The most I paid for a pass was in college and it was still only like $200. Now you have to make portal axle money $$$ to go snowboarding so I do night-boarding at Brighton once every handful of years and it sucks. Night-boarding sucks.
I’m there most Sundays too if you want to meet up ever.Snowbasin pass holder here. Wife, kid, and I typically go Sundays.
My kid has ski classes on Sunday this year, my wife usually hangs for half the morning until she heads to the lodge to relax and I’m running all over the place until my kids classes end.
With pass prices going up again, we got the passes with the holidays windows blacked out. Too many people to deal with anyways.
