The 2013 Wasatch Splitfest is being run by a collection of local Utah splitboarders. Our main goal is to celebrate our community, with an eye toward backcountry safety and environmental awareness.
All type of splitters are of course welcome: out-of-towners, locals, old timers, newbies, and curious wannabes.
Other splitfests (South Lake Tahoe, Rogers Pass) are more what I would call “destination”-style, in that it makes sense for many or all participants to be lodged at a common location. In the case of this Wasatch Splitfest, we’re not going to have a common lodging spot – you are on your own for that. We feel this makes sense, because we anticipate that a lot of participants will be Wasatch front locals, and plus there’s tons of hotels, condos, buddies to crash with in Salt Lake City metro area. We will provide some suggested options to help you decide if you don’t know where to start.
Our current tentative schedule is as follows:
Feb 6th Wednesday night: Splitboarding 101 Intro workshop Feb 7th Thursday morning: Meet up at Park n Ride or trailhead and go splitboarding Feb 7th Thursday night: Art Show/Tuning Workshop/Silent art auction Feb 8th Friday morning: Meet up at Park n Ride or trailhead and go splitboarding Feb 8th Friday night: Slideshows/Movies/Presentations night and Grand Raffle Feb 9th Saturday morning: Meet up at Park n Ride or trailhead and go splitboarding Feb 9th Saturday night: Party and Obstacle Course Challenge Feb 10th Sunday morning: Meet up at Park n Ride or trailhead and go splitboarding
Watch this space for further details, and hollar back if you have any suggestions or questions. We’re stoked!

Hey thanks for the kind words guys, super motivating. Jim I feel honored by your comment especially coming from someone I've followed, respected and admired for so long. This is going to be a fun event, Bucky (Buckchow) is one of sickest, creative dudes in the Wasatch. I'm looking forward to it.
