Did someone say free skiing?

I was wondering if this crowd would pick up on that. I wouldn't be surprised, though, to see them refuse to board with skis. This isn't last year's patch skiing, it's a dangerously deceptively thin amount of new snow that will catch the clueless. I otherwise suspect that most ski bums in the Salt Lake Valley would be in the tram queue this weekend.
 
I was up there yesterday, they didn't seem to have a knee jerk reaction against it, and didn't say we couldn't.

Marc, no need to go publicizing this further. And I mean, it might be time for some good old dis-information about how they wont be allowing boards on the big bus to the sky.
 
Don't break your leg before the season starts because of overzealousness. From what I could see, snowbird is mostly rocks, and there isn't much of a real base there.
 
Might be interesting this weekend. According to NWS, it looks like we are in for our first major snow event! :snowball fight:
 
I think it is unlikely that the Snowbird tram will be the way to access this weekend's goods. As some of us have found out the hard way, Snowbird is an exccedingly rocky mountain with a thin base. And if the dump is actually big enough, I doubt management will do enough avy control to allow people to bring skis up the tram.

As is usual this early, the turns will need to be earned on relatively low angle terrain.

I'll try my best not to get hurt.
