Ogden, Utah:
A once sleepy Ogden after the historical railroad boom days has since woken up to the buzz of the Outdoor Industry moving to Ogden with companies like Salomon, Osprey, Atomic, Arcteryx, and Suunto all coming to town. The word is out that the Ogden Wasatch Mountains are a destination all their own. Come straight to Ogden for Utah's Greatest Snow on Earth. Snowbasin is world-class, and Powder Mountain is down-to-earth for two distinct resort flavors. Also, a tour in the Ogden backcountry is a classic and relatively quiet Wasatch Mountains experience. Vertical Integration is headquartered in Ogden and the Ogden Wasatch Range is V.I.'s backyard. No one does it better, and V.I. has a packaged program to do Ogden right.
Trip Host & Backcountry Guide:
J.T. Robinson is this trip's host and backcountry guide. J.T. went to college at Ogden's Weber State University, and graduated with a degree in finance. He went straight into a career as a professional backcountry telemark skier based in Ogden for a decade. J.T. co-founded Vertical Integration in Ogden, and is a backcountry ski guide in Ogden with more terrain than anyone else. J.T. has worked in the Ogden Wasatch Mountains for nearly twenty years and is the ideal host and backcountry guide to help escape the President's Day crowds and experience the hidden gem that is Ogden, Utah.
