1/29 Kenny's Where to Ride

It is a snow day everywhere today. Forget Skyline and PowMow, they both will be a blizzard. Strawberry has a good chance of being a blizzard much of the day, but is your best bet for mountain riding. The wind if forecasted to howl, so expect wind in the mid-twenties with much higher gusts and plenty of snow. Visibility should be poor at best. Park City and Rush will both have plenty of wind and snow. You could also get rides in valley locations if you can find a field with suitable coverage.

Wednesday the wind backs off a bit as does the snow. PowMow looks like another snow day. Skyline has a strong chance of being a whiteout as well, but may clear enough to be rideable I would give it a 50/50 chance right now. Strawberry is the call with wind in the mid to upper-teens and snow flurries throughout the day. The wind will be canted more to the west favoring - CC, Ladders, and the view spot. Cabins should have the strongest wind and the least coverage.

Thursday the wind backs off even more. Skyline looks like the call with wind in the mid-teens and tons of fresh. Strawberry may crack low-teens, so it will be rideable with a big kite/board combo. Westerly cant again, so CC and points east look to be the best riding spots.
