If the wind is still looking good at around 10:00 or so I'll probably go. Based on the cam: http://www.wrh.noaa.gov/slc/camera/sing ... Summit.php
It looks like there's still snow on the highway and it's likely to be a bit slick so be careful.

The winds are coming back up and forcasted for mid teens this afternoon. I think I'm going to give it a try. The rest of the week looks dead everywhere. That alone is motivation to try it!

Hey Guys,

I'm thinking about going back up to Strawberry. I had fun yesterday even though the winds weren't very consistent. I almost got snowed in because I stayed up there so long. The road was really bad, was driving like 25 mph or less back down last night so there should be tons of new powder.

Hope to see you and the wind there :D
