Thanksgiving at SnowBasin Ski Resort, Utah

By
Home Inspector with UTAH INFRARED Home and Building Inspections

SnowBasin had quite a turnout for Turkey and Skiing this Thanksgiving. Early morning(9am) the lines to the lift were as long as I have ever seen them. The Turkey feast was served an then people started dropping like flys(heading home). The long absence from skiing combined with a big feast proved to take it's toll on the majority of us out of shape skiers.

Luckily I took a bit of a break for some Thermal Imaging and caught my second wind for some great afternoon skiing. I bought my first season pass this year so I'm anticipating one of our best ski seasons yet.

A few roof concerns but overall the resort looked really good from an Infrared perspective.

Glad you had a good time, my kids and I went to Alta and no one was there.  I was shocked but very pleased.  We had a great time with no lines and we were exhausted.  Happy Thanksgiving weekend.

Hey Kim,

I was actually planning on going to Alta thinking it would have the best snow and because I've never been. I made the mistake of trying to pull my ski gear out of storage and prepare the morning of vs. the night before so time became the deciding factor.

I've heard great things about Alta(no snowboarders). I'm definitely looking forward to skiing there in the next few weeks.
