Without a doubt, this has been one of the greatest winters in recent memory. Most all of us who live within driving distance of the mountains have had at least a handful of powder days. There’s been plenty to go around. But, and this is a big BUT, by the looks of this video from Snowbird’s Mineral Basin, not everyone has gotten their fill. The gate drops and skiers and snowboarders at the iconic resort charge into this run looking for freshies, clogging things up like a firing day at Doheny. Us humans are a predictable bunch.
