Skiing Utah - January 26-30, 2007
These pictures were taken on a short trip for Cathy and I to visit
friends and to ski in the mountains of Utah. They were taken with
Cathy's Canon PowerShot A540 digital camera at and with my Fujifilm
Finepix S9000 digital camera. Images are shown at a resolution of
640x480, but some are available in larger sizes by clicking on the
links after the captions.

No pictures, just a lot of airports and airplanes. The flights were
late (and the first was a bumpy ride) mostly because of congestion at
JFK but also somewhat because of fog at SLC. Then some car trouble in
SLC meant we didn't get in until 3 AM MST (5 AM EST). But we made
it.

Up into Big Cottonwood Canyon for Solitude and Brighton today. We
decided to buy the pass that gives access to both mountains. That was
nice, except that the "Solbright" trail that connects the two was in
rough shape from Solitude and very flat (and some uphill) back to
Solitude. Today's pictures are mainly from Cathy:
- The ride up Big Cottonwood Canyon
(S9000 camera)
- Solitude in the morning (S9000 camera)
- Solitude morning runs (A540 camera)
- Brighton runs around lunch time (A540 camera)
- Solitude after skiing (A540 camera)
- Solitude after skiing (S9000 camera)
- Brighton after skiing (S9000 camera)

We made the right up to Powder Mountain again this year. Cory joined
us for this day. It wasn't powdery like last year, but it was still a
great day of skiing. Again, most pictures are by Cathy:
- On the mountain (A540 camera)
- Sue and Cory's cat (A540 camera)
- Powder Mountain parking lot (S9000
camera)
- The ride back (S9000 camera)

Cathy headed home, I went up to Snowbird. Again, the snow wasn't
great and there wasn't enough of it, but Snowbird is very nice and
there was plenty of good skiing out there. All pictures are by me
but mostly with Cathy's (much more portable) camera.
