Any heads up on where is good in the PC area for a south wind would be great.

It seems like Strawberry is no good on a south? where is? Any suggestions would be great!

Thanks, billy

Powder is great if not the best on a south. You can go back and forth from the parking lot no problem.

Billy,

Strawberry no good on a south? I haven't heard that before. I have kited there on a south wind. It does not a stronger flow for the south winds to blow there (Skyline and Powder Mountain need less south flow in order to blow), but I would think that on a day like today, it should blow. May be gusty.

I am debating on where to go today as well. I am concerned that PowMow and Skyline may be whiteouts. I guess it all depends on the timing. I think I may just head down to Skyline because it will take longer for the front to arrive there. I would go to Strawberry if there were a bit more snow. Maybe tomorrow.
