RE: OT: Any Skiers at Swarmfest?

I'm re-sending this message, as it looks like the first one didn't go through.

... original message ...

Well, I'm glad SOMEONE brought it up!!

I'm Utahn by birth, and have skied most of my life at Beaver (45 
minutes drive from Logan, all-day lift ticket for $25, complete ski 
rental package for $12, private ski lessons $50 for two hours).  I can 
also highly recommend Powder Mountain in Ogden Canyon, bigger and 
still unkown (hence uncrowded), or the "usual" places of Snowbird, 
Alta, and Park City (pricey, crowded, but some of the best slopes in 
the world).

I am also an avid cross-country skiier, and will be happy to take 
people on some of the better mountain trails in Logan Canyon if time 
allows.  I know where the best place to spot elk and moose are, which 
places can avoid snowmobiles, and which places would be best for 
beginners or experinced skiiers.  Equipment rentals in Logan will be 
about $15/day for skis, boots, poles, etc.

Luckily, we now have snow on the ground, at least in the mountains.  
It's been a dry, warm winter up to the last few weeks.
