Dawn Patrol...730AM Early Tram
The moon was
setting as the Sun came up.
Dave says Utah snow feels like a featherbed.
Steve says...snows for skiing not sleeping. |
January 22nd, 2008 Snowbird, UT
Dave, Kyle, Steve, and Rob from team
Alpine, left Olympia Monday morning expecting a day of
skiing on Tuesday. However, they were not expecting to
have an hour and a half delay due to snowfall at Salt Lake
City's airport. Turns out the resort they were headed
to was receiving huge amount of snow (22inches to be exact).
So after a slight delay they arrived at Snowbird late Monday
afternoon.
Tuesday morning they woke up bright and
early, grabbed breakfast and went for the early tram.
As they arrived at the summit, they realized the early
morning wakeup was well worth it. Hardly a cloud in
the sky with the sun peaking up as the moon was going down.
Once they had their warm up groomer run, they went for the
freshies from the day before. Lets just say Utah has
some great snow. The sun continued to rise high into
the sky and the clouds were no wear in sight. Bluebird
powder days in Utah are impossible to beat.
