Early Season Snowboarding


The last storm didn't give us nearly as much snow as I would have liked, but we got a few runs out of it. Just minutes away from Wolf Creek Utah Lodging, is Powder Mountain resort. Stay in a luxury home and ski all you want.
Powder Mountain isn't open yet, but that never stops my husband, dogs, and me from get first tracks. A short hike got us a fairly decent run- no moisture at all in the snow made it some of the lightest snow ever.  But be warned, the snow was so light, that we were hitting a few rocks below. Just make sure to have your old gear.
We ran into some dudes building jumps and hitting rails. If this sounds like your kid, and you want a fun Halloween getaway, give them a heads up about this.

The Snow is Coming

It is here! The snow has arrived and now I am ready for winter. It will take a bit more for Wolf Creek Utah Ski Resort to open, but it isn't too early to start gearing up for it. I am making sure I have my pass ready to Wolf Creek and  Powder Mountain. If I could figure out how to get a discount at Snowbasin, I would be getting that pass too.
My nephews are signing up for the After School Program at Wolf- Mom wants to keep em' busy for the winter. The program starts Jan. 26th and I can't wait to teach them in the Program.  Stay tuned for upcoming deals at the mountain, and how the snow is all around the upper Ogden Valley
