Wasatch Mountains, UT, Report: The North Face of Mt. Superior in Cringy, Rock-Strewn Powder Snow Report from November 30, 2024 We went for Cardiac Ridge in the Wasatch Mountains, UT, on Saturday. The weather was warm and sunny with a slight breeze when we left the car around 9am. Up and over Cardiff Pass without incident. Across and down into the headwaters of Cardiff Fork. We gawked all around and there were quite few tracks […] Conditions Report Miles Clark | December 2, 2024 1 Comment
Berthoud Pass, CO, Report: A Deep Thanksgiving Morning Report from Thursday, November 28, 2024 Just over an hour from Denver, Colorado, is Berthoud Pass, a popular backcountry zone that was once a ski area. The Berthoud Pass Ski Area was home to one of the first ski lifts in the state. Unfortunately, the ski area closed in 2003, but the slopes live on today for backcountry enthusiasts.

Deer Valley, UT, Report: Solid Top to Bottom Skiing on Season Pass Holder Opening Day Report from November 29, 2024 I was honored to ski Deer Valley on their season pass appreciation day this past Friday. They hooked up a free lunch (entree, dessert, fountain drink), and the skiing started at noon. I showed up at about noon, and almost no one was around. I rode up the Carpenter chairlift and then slid down to […] Conditions Report Miles Clark | December 1, 2024 1 Comment

Wasatch Mountain, UT, Report: Cardiff Bowl on a Sunny November Powder Day Report from November 28, 2024 Yesterday we went for a short walk and a short ski. Only a few select zones up high are skiing deep enough to avoid turning your skis into cheesegraters. We cruised up and skied a mellow classic: Cardiff Bowl. Martin & I followed Maxwell and Alex up there and watched them drop in. Sunny, powdery, […] Conditions Report Miles Clark | November 29, 2024 0 Comments
Alta, UT, Report: The First Deep Blower Powder Day of the Season Report from November 27, 2024 I skied Alta until 4 pm on Tuesday. The big storm day that wasn’t a big storm day. I was skeptical of the forecast and expected it to fizzle, but I wasn’t sure, and the Alta magic should never be underestimated. Same video as above but with some 3rd person video of pow skiing, heavy […] Conditions Report Miles Clark | November 28, 2024 0 Comments
Alta, UT, Report: 1,800-Vertical-Feet of Terrific Early Season Skiing With Zero Lift Lines Report from November 25, 2024 Today was my first inbounds day at Alta this season after 10 fun uphill preseason days. Alta is legit right now. Collins and Wildcat are open with 1,800 vertical feet of good skiing. I cranked laps – mostly on the groomers – with an obnoxious smile. Off-piste was a bit risky with rocks and logs […] Conditions Report Miles Clark | November 25, 2024 0 Comments
Jones Pass, CO, Report: First Backcountry Day of The Season Report from Sunday, November 10, 2024 Snow has been accumulating in Colorado’s Rocky Mountains, and the backcountry zones across the state are starting to fill in. An early November storm brought in about 18″ over the last few days, and I was itching to get out for my first backcountry tour of the season. Grabbing our splitboards, my buddy and I […] Backcountry Luke Guilford | November 16, 2024 0 Comments
