Powder Mountain
Going to Utah again next week. Just wandering what you guys think
about Powder Mountain. Last year we were at SnowBasin but unfortunately we went on a cold and windy day. The conditions were very icy but I know on a good day SnowBasin can be awesome. I guess with low wind and moderate temperature things would be different but unfortunately, I hear thats not too often at Snow Basin. Can the same be said of Powder Mountain? Thanx in advance Alan

Thanx in advance Alan I LOVE Powder Mountain. It's got fresh powder stashes for days after the last snowfall, and huge acreage. It's got the feel of a family run place and sometimes the lifts break. The "lodge" is very basic. The people who both run it and go there and super nice and mellow. There are times when it feels like you are renting the mountain rather than buying a lift ticket. No marble bathrooms like Snow Basin, no enormous lodges and no enclosed gondolas. But pure 100% old fashioned awesomeness. Powder Mountain also tends to be less windy than Snow Basin. caveat: the are posters here who have spent far more time in Utah then me. If they post, I will defer in advance. Dave
