OK, So I am late starting this thread. I have been out 5 times, starting November 8 - All at Solitude, about a 40 minute drive from my home on the west edge of the Salt Lake valley.
There is an annual open-first pissing contest among the Utah resorts, and Brighton beat Solitude by an unannounced afternoon opening the day before both had announced.
I have a weekday only pass at Solitude, not a bad deal at $549, but a better deal at the $449 I should have gotten it for if I got off my ass and pulled the trigger 2 days earlier.
Anyway, at first there was pretty limited terrain, but as the mountain opens more, I am pretty impressed by the sheer amount of powder, and, since it is a pretty uncrowded resort, how easy it is to find it even late into the day.
By now you Eastern people should have some days in..?
