Stealing this thread idea from @Ron at Steamboat and plagiarizing him too:thumb:
The idea is to offer a thread to facilitate meet-ups for anyone planning on skiing resorts near Salt Lake City this season? I'll be skiing at Snowbird and Park City quite a bit over the next few months and could...

Hello
I have been doing a bit of reading about skiing in Utah (I'm from out of state).
I seem to notice indirect comments or references about / against the Cottonwoods and Park City / Dear Valley.
There seems to be some type of rivalry or stereotype or competition or love / hate feelings...

Couple of questions I was hoping to get answered.
For SLC should Powmow and Snowbasin be planned as essentially their own trip? I see lodging can be found between the two for fairly good pricing on VRBO type sites. That makes doing 2 days at each of these hills very tempting. There seems to...

I apologize if I missed this if answered in earlier thread, but I’m wondering if someone could give a Pugski-style breakdown of the 4 cottonwood resorts. I have an IKON pass this year and will be able to ride at least 2/4.
I’d like to try my hand at the more moderate off-piste stuff because...

We're visiting SLC for the week heading into the MLK weekend. Any tips for us first-timers out there? Best ski areas to ski in, best rental shops for good/cheap demos, what skis to bring -- wide, easy flexing skis because there will be lots of soft snow on-piste in Jan or regular carving skis...

I asked this in the Aspen thread too, but I want to get the opinion of you Utah fans too ;-)
Would your pick be Copper/Aspen-Snowmass or Salt Lake City area for Presidents’ Day week? Why one over the other?
Ikon Base pass. Skiing Friday 2/15 - Saturday 2/23.

There’s a nice thread on the LCC conditions, but someone must be skiing BCC too right?
Care to share the conditions? Any pics?
Thanks!
Tjaard
PS, If conditions are bad, it might be time for a lesson, any instructor recommendations at Solitude, Brighton, or Deer Valley?
