Even though I won't be flying to SLC to ski in Utah until April, I'm already watching snow conditions for Alta. OpenSnow has good news for this weekend and the following week. Lots of new snow followed by cold weather. If I didn't have plans for the next few weeks to ski in the northeast, would be a good time to hop a plane to see what early season at Alta is like.
For those who haven't skied in Utah, some terminology:
LCC - Little Cottonwood Canyon, Alta at the end, Snowbird a mile closer to SLC
BCC - Big Cottonwood Canyon, Brighton at the end of the road, Solitude a couple miles closer to SLC
Parley's Canyon - Park City, Deer Valley
Ogden Valley - Snowbasin, Powder Mountain, Whisper Ridge (snowcat, heli), Nordic Valley
UTA- Utah Transit Authority for ski bus that runs to LCC, BCC, Ogden Valley
UTA TRAX - light rail around SLC, has stop at airport
SuperPass - multi-resort pass for LCC/BCC that includes UTA transit pass, an option for trips 4-7 days
