Snowbird Opening Week Session
By Joe Carter

After a crazy trip from Oregon to Colorado and then back to Utah to another long night of partying I was pretty beat. Elliot Levitt came and woke me up bright and early telling me we’re going to Snowbird.  I threw on my gear as fast as I could and figured the fresh air and shredding would help me forget about my hangover. Having no clue what conditions were going to be like I found myself surprised when we got to the mountain and snow was falling on top of a good 5-6inches of new from the night before. The visibility was pretty rough at the top when you got off the tram, but it cleared up as you cruised down. We found some good stash’s of snow and put down a few solid slashes. Then we would hurry right back to the tram and try to get the front spot so we could spot any new lines for the ride down. If you have never been to Snowbird you should probably check it out. They are the first and last resort open in the Salt Lake area with some of the sickest terrain that will only be getting better as everything fills in with more snow.
