Where to snowkite 3/23 - Strawberry

Postby Kenny » Mon Mar 23, 2009 9:54 am

Looks promising for Strawberry today. It depends on how much clearing we get. Visibility is probably an issue this morning. The webcam is packed with snow, so it is not helpful. The storm should clear somewhat as the day goes on, but we may have snow squalls going through. Expect wind in the high-teens to low-twenties. The base should be hard with some soft fluff on top. Check UDOT commuterlink before you go to see how long of a drive it will be.

Skyline will have wind, but it may be a whiteout most of the day with clearing to occur later and very strong gusty wind in the forecast. The webcam was showing a photo from yesterday, so I am not sure what it looks like down there right now.

Park City will also have wind today, but I am not sure if there is any base to ride on. Wind should be in the mid-teens on a sketchy base.

Tomorrow, NW flow continues. Strawberry may give up some rides on large kites with wind in the low-teens. Skyline looks better with NW wind around 15 - 20. Some snow squalls going through at both locations.
