FROM THE PREFACE

HERE’S THE SECRET about Utah, and the Wasatch Mountains specifically: it’s the most effective backcountry snowboarding on the planet. Moist storms that observe throughout the desert west of Salt Lake Metropolis slam right into a wall of mountains east of the Nice Salt Lake and dump enormous quantities of snow. Nevertheless it’s not simply the amount, it’s the standard that issues. Most storms are available right-side up, that means they start moist, with thick snow falling first, adopted by colder air that dries the snow, leaving fluffy, dreamlike powder on prime. That’s the recipe for excellent powder snowboarding, and Utah has it in spades.

These routes are an excellent basis for additional exploration in Utah’s city and rural mountain ranges. As you ski or snowboard these routes, cease to scan the horizon and construct up the braveness to see what’s on the opposite facet of the following ridge. Discover. As a result of exploration is finally what backcountry snowboarding is about. Nicely, that and shredding waist-deep powder.
