Skiing
I'm going to write an article for Living Las Vegas on the place, so this will be quick. Check there in January for the full story.
Went up Lee Canyon today to check out the conditions. It was blustery and windy, but it was also a hell of a lot of fun. I forget, between trips down the hill, just how much I enjoy skiing. Yeah, the runs aren't as long as in Summit County, but what the heck, it's only sixty-two miles from my driveway. Took me an hour and ten minutes coming home. Really, if you live in Vegas and just can't stand the thought of driving up past Cedar city again, you should check out the local hills. They can't ever duplicate a ski resort on the Strip, no matter how hard they try, but the real thing is just outside of Summerlin. Really.
