New lift at Nordic Valley

You work for them or something? I didnt even know that resort was open, just saw the cheapest pass for adults is 699 and day tickets are 75? The owners must be burning through capitol right now.

PowMow is sick

i work at nordic valley, i haven't heard anything about it tho... hope to see you on the mountain brotha

I’m pretty sure that project is still on hold. It was one quad to start. Maybe they did that? The rest of that massive Capitol plan I think is on hold. And the gondola to Ogden will have years of red tape and probably never happen.

Even the billionaire private club up the road is on hold. I’d assume that gets going this spring. They had the green light. Covid put the red light.

Yeah the master plan is sick but will snow still exist when its done?

Right?!?

I find it hard to believe they will do that entire thing. I’d assume they expand to that peak but just on the east side where they currently are.

From what I heard they started building the lift terminals, then had some geology people come look at it and they reported that it was build on unstable ground.

Classic Nordic

seems cool i guess, just always thought of that place as a decent "homely" ski area thats relatively affordable, especially for people who arent hardcore into skiing or just want to dabble, but I guess thats not going to be a thing anymore with the expansion. Classic Utah.

It's a detachable 6 pack named Nordic Valley Express. It will probably open this week depending on how this storm delivers, and it will be a great addition to the Ogden Valley. I for sure recommend checking it out. The terrain is supper fun, and more terrain will be added this summer if everything goes to plan.

Just went there this weekend to avoid crazy crowds at literally everywhere else. Dope thing is they have an awesome uphill policy that you can tour up during business hours. As we went up top, we noticed the whole new expansion area and were impressed as hell with it. Skied down and hiked up most of the way over there late on Saturday. We had to turn around just below the true top because it was getting dark, but skied some fun runs down on the lower half. Sunday morning early we hit it again and the snow had dried out a bit. On our way up, we chatted with a snowmaking person and they mentioned they were finally opening up the chair at noon. The upper half was all time, with a solid foot of fresh and noone riding the chair yet. Looks like they have the start of some great cut runs already. Next time there is another snowmageddon coming to SLC, the cottonwoods are fucked, and avy danger is through the roof, I'd be super tempted to just go there and tour the resort some more.

Also bonus points, there was a cool rail jam going on while we were hiking, loved the general vibe of the resort and how tiny mom and pop it felt like. Consider me a Nordic Valley fan.

Yeah, that was us. He was on cloud nine all day. We made sure to read the website policies and we couldn't find anything saying you can't do it, he just had to be leashed and kept out of skiers' way.
