Ski Utah Interconnect Tour




Ski Utah's Interconnect tour is a ski tour that takes you through 4 resorts via the backcountry. Boot packing, side stepping, fishboning, traversing, untouched powder fields, GORGEOUS scenery, 2 guides, and on a good day the best snow in the world. Thursday April 8th I went on the tour to update KALL 700 Trailmaster radio website. On assignment, but as always my research is fun. The first part of the day we found some nice snow. As the day progressed the deep powder turned to sloppy, heavy crud. It was hard work. Temps in the high 40's I'd guess. Great lunch at Solitude and a long shove across Highway to Heaven with the hopes that no more snow would slide. Avi danger was high in many places today, but the sky was blue and the day was beautiful! The Cottonwood Canyons have to be one of the most dramatic and beautiful places on the planet. Skied Snowbird, Alta, Brighton, Solitude and back!
