Winter Spreads - Alta getting hit

The Colonel forecasts several feet of snow for Alta and Snowbird, recalls his first Alta powder experience, and sparks video sharing and playful debate over Utah skiing versus West Virginia’s Mount Pleasant Crayon.

The Colonel highlights Alta’s promising early-season snowfall, while members compare conditions across the West and look ahead to winter trips in Utah and beyond.

The Colonel shares photos of Alta’s remarkable 44 inches of new snow, while fellow members add video and recommend a Discovery Channel documentary about avalanches in Little Cottonwood Canyon.
