Ski Days 102


When you cross that 100 days of skiing mark, that is a HUGE deal, at least in my mine. So how would you mark that anniversary? The funny thing is, even though the ski season as whole has ended for certain resorts if definitely has not. Just last week Alta ski resort received 12'' of brand new snow, I have always heard of people skiing in July, my Dad always enjoy bragging about his days of skiing on the 4th of July...

Even though the calender wants to say is Spring and no more snow, that is a bold face lie, this is what we like to call, "second season." The few resorts left open include Alta, Brighton and Snowbird, they generally don't even consider closing down. This is one of the best kept secrets of the season. 

There are multiple feet of new powder and the resort is a ghost town. Most of y'all are thinking, now way slushy snow, and gross melt but it honestly dumps snow in April! This is the best way to check this off your bucket list, skiing in the spring. 

To look forward to the next season, here is some important ski pass information. It is never too early to look ahead.
