As part of Nissan's X= campaign, we have decided to show the rest of the ski/snowboard community what Utah in March looks like...March has been epic, beyond epic. This picture was taken at a Utah resort and as you can see, I had a fresh dump of new snow and no one on the chair ahead of me. X= no people in chair + new snow = fresh tracks all day for me...Right after this run I ran to the car to get out my Winterstick Swallowtail, it was too deep for my 164 Wasatch... The day was all time Utah!
Just to give you an idea of how much snow Utah is getting, this is the sign at the Brighton Lodge that stands about 25' above the parking lot. We broke the 500" mark in the 3rd week of March with it snowing about every day for the last 2 weeks. The backcountry has been amazing, even the in bounds resort skiing has been good. Now that April is upon us and spring has sprung, the days are getting longer so we are able to stay out more hours and get that wonderful evening light-in between all the storm cycles of course...
For all those not getting it, eat your hearts out...
More pictures of the first week of April to come...
