I've got some friends flying in from California to take in the Utah snow. The only question is where to go? Everyone is the group are novice sledders but are awesome on the two wheel machines. I haven't been out alot this years, so I am clueless about snow conditions. I have narrowed it to Logan canyon area, Monte Cristo or Fairview. We are leaving from the Ogden area, so Fairview is quite a drive for the day but we would do it if the other areas are subpar. So what are the suggestions on where to go?
Where to ride?

Thanks for the info. But really why is Monte a no go? Snotel shows more snow at Monte (64 inches) than any place in Logan canyon area.
Dont believe the snotel. Went up there yesterday and the road is showing for several hundred yards and with warm temps I'll bet that extends to a mile in no time at all.
Once you get up higher there's enough snow to ride just fine but I still dont believe 64".

I'd take them to the uintas. Head out of the nobblets TH. Good terrain for novices up around wolf creek summit, there are signs to help you find your way.
Good idea dfinn. How is the snow level at the TH, has anybody heard?
Sounds good. I am more concerned with good snow than easy terrain. I raced the Baja 1000 with these guys, I'm not too concerned with their abilities. How is the snow level up Logan Canyon?
See above....those pics are up from Beaver Mountain in Logan Canyon. Should have plenty, although I think they have stopped grooming operations for the season so the road may not be so pleasant.
