Thumbs up Hitting the Slopes!!!

Hey guys and gals, I just wanted to let you know that we're gonna be heading up to Brianhead, UT with Trail Bud to do a little skiing/snowboarding from the 26th-29th and if you're interested in hitting the slopes, we'd love to have you join us. Just so you know, we're staying at the Best Western Town & Country in Cedar City and they still have rooms as well as killer packages - $160 a night for 2 adults which includes 2 all day lift tickets and breakfast. Also, if you've never been to Brianhead, there are no crowds, the snow is great and it is pretty close - about 2 hours from Vegas. Anyway, let us know if you want to come and/or need any more info.

BTW - Did I mention that it's supposed to snow every day that we're there? Can you say UTAH POWDER!!!

Have fun guys!

Hopefully next year Bill's job won't be so 'new' and he'll feel more comfortable taking some time off. We'd love to join you but just can't get away this year.

Default Like they say...."Greatest snow on earth!"

Have fun at Brianhead! The snow is dumping all over the state! Up here in Salt Lake the snow is deep at the resorts.....and driving the JK up there is half the fun!

I think Eddie said they were taking the JK up and down the slopes and MAYBE they would snowboard a little bit.

Default Pictures of the trip & report.

Hi All,

We just got back and the trip was GREAT!!!.
It was COLD the 1st day it was 5 degrees and a wind of about 10 -15 MPH, so we thought it was about -10 or so all day. It snowed all day too!! We skied all day until close. The second day was about 15 degrees, it was much better and we had no lift lines to wait in. We skied all day again.

I was the only one skiing everybody else snow boards. Everybody had a good time and no one got hurt. The power was new thing for Ryan and I, we're use to the Eastern Sierra snow. Ryan took right to it, I liked the groomed stuff better then the deep powder. I don't like to lean back, to get my tips up.
Here's a couple shots.
Take care.
