(Powder at Deer Valley.)
What a great season it was! It got off to a slow start with little snow in November. But December and January were huge! So much snow! At one point, we got over 90" or snow in 10 days. Powder day after powder day. Incredible!

And the spring skiing was pretty good too. There were a few warm sunny days, but also still a lot of powder days. I was in Colorado at Beaver Creek and they got 2' of snow 2 days before they closed. In fact, I had 9 powder days out there in the two weeks before closing weekend.

And mother nature is still toying with us. May 1 Snowbird reported 23". Then it was sunny and warm. Then snowed again. So, if you don't like the weather, just wait five minutes. It over 80 degrees today yet I hear it might snow on Wednesday. :)
(Me at Deer Valley.)
Anyhow.
As for numbers, I finished up the season with a record 53 days (beating last season by one day)! Most were at the Park City resorts (Deer Valley (19 days), Park City Mountain Resort (15), and a few days at the Canyons). And I did more skiing (34 days) than snowboarding (19 days), as usual.
(Me at Keystone.)
How can I ski that many days at that many different places you ask? Thanks go to the good folks at Ski Utah. I'm lucky enough to have a Ski Utah Silver Pass that allows me to ski up to 30 days at each resort in the state of Utah. Combine that with a flexible job (I'm a REALTOR in Park City) and I'm able to ski a lot.
(Jeff, Kyle, and me at Breckenridge.)
Now, with the skis put away for summer, it's time to focus on selling some houses. If you have any real estate needs in the Park City area, let me know. Otherwise, enjoy the outdoors and we'll talk to you again soon when I get out the mountain bike and trail shoes.
'til later,
- Jeff
