For those traveling in from outside SLC, Alaska Air, title sponsor, is offering pretty sweet deals into Salt Lake, planning early can save you $.

What else is there to do in Utah you ask? It's mid-April in Utah, we experience mostly nice springtime temperatures in the valley, but there's plenty of skiing & snowboarding to be had at high elevation. We're planning for some snowy fun in the mtns on Sunday for those interested, and a group skate on Antelope Island Saturday afternoon. Come join us!

See you at the Start Line!
