It has been a roller coaster of a ride in the weather department. We have had really warm temps, then rain, then snow, then back to really warm temps. I was able to get out around the first of the month for my first dirt trail of the year. Bells Canyon was ready so I made my way up there. Things are just coming back to life up there. The views were nice and I made a casual loop up there. It was nice to be out moving and just unplugging from it all. Makes me long to go backpacking! Here are a few shots from that day.
This past week we had winter return on Thursday. I was fortunate to be treated to some lift served turns Wednesday and Thursday up at Solitude Mountain Resort. Wednesday felt like summer riding. It was soft everywhere. It felt more like a day at the beach than a day snowboarding. What a difference a day makes. Thursday returned winter to the Wasatch. We arrived to it just nuking snow and we headed up. The term "Free Refills" would be very appropriate. It got deeper and better on every run. It was a ghost town up there. Maybe 20 cars in the whole parking lot including staff. The snow stayed good all day and just kept getting deeper. Visibility was an issue as it was full on blizzard conditions the whole time. Here is a short edit of one of the only videos I shot that day because most of the time it was sopped in. A few more days on the snow I think then I will be moving to summer activities. Enjoy the video! More adventures to come!
