I see, thanks for the response! Damn lcc sounds worse than i70 hahaha
 
Tomorrow is going to be sunny and nice, no new snow, im guessing there won't be too much traffic, if you leave by 8 you should be skiing at 9.

Idk what difference spring break makes in terms of location but PC was real busy today, just nonstop rentals for people from all over, maybe LCC is different but I'm sure big will be fucked with college kids too. Utah skiings just too good right now.
 
The real question is what are you doing in Lehi? Handing out Jesus panflets?

Take wasatch Blvd from that direction tho. Actually belt loop might be same shirt that time of day.
 
Idk how people live in a DESTINATION ski city with a population of >200k and complain about traffic on a two-lane road winding through snowy roads filled with tourists inexperienced in driving in snow. ffs Utah advertises "best snow on earth" on license plates! Tbh most people don't live in places where significant snowfall driving skills are revevant....even out west.

It's quite preposterous. For example, a quick Google search yielded a 4yr old statistic that said '15/'16 had 4.5million skier visits. ..... The fact that you even made it to the mountain is amazing. Add annual growth and your population of skiers and that's tens of thousands of skiers per day on average.

This thread subject is getting really old really fast. Move to Breckenridge or Vail and learn what bad lines actually are.

Want to avoid lines? Move to a town in BFE near a ski resort. Wake up at 5am, and leave by 6am. Accept defeat and stop complaining and ski. I'll trade spots in a heartbeat to sit 2hrs in a line to a mountain versus 1hr to a city.

I don’t think OP was complaining he was just wondering what time to leave?
 
Wasn't anything like a powday yesterday, but you're average weekend bluebird spring skiing congestion. Snowbird had a race event going on this weekend so there were alot of people parking on the side of the road due to the lots being full by 10. Alta wasn't as bad I'd imagine. Its been a minute since we got a good block of warm sunny weather up on the mountains so it brings people out in droves.
