Paige and I have discovered a new playtime activity: skinning up Snowbasin before they open. You are allowed to do this since it is Forest Service land; you only need to be off the mountain before they start the lifts at 9am. However it's not recommended on powder days when they are doing avy control. But, on most days you get to access the creamy corduroy goodness on wide open trails before it gets too crowded and skied out. This past Saturday we went up with Seth Wallace and it was a beautiful morning.
It's a great way to start the day!
