Living in Las Vegas and want to make the trip up for my wifes birthday on the 23rd. If not where else in that area has snow?
Is there rideable snow around Daniels summit?

The boys at Tri-city were there at strawberry all week testing out different combo's of their set ups. They said it was fairly good, better than they thought, but they still had to be careful. 2 big storms comin in this week (hopefully), i'm sure it will be rideable

Yes
Rode 30 miles Saturday (short day).
The trails were groomed perfect & there is decent powder up top. Should be awesome this weekend with 2 more storms comming in.
Be VERY carefull off trail. Slow and easy. I did a fair amount of off trail and didn't hit anything. Avoid innocent looking mounds and stay close to other tracks.
My buddy went off the side of trail about 1 mile from the parking area down low and trashed his right trailing arm. A quick trip back to the trailer and a sledge hammer, 2 pieces of flat iron & some bolts & we had it splinted and ready to go back out in 1/2 hour.

Rode above Strawberry Saturday. Not too much snow on top two or three feet. Enough snow to ride the road and play along the trail. I would be careful if you start to boondock off the trail. One or two more storms this week and it should be really good.
You should be good by the 23rd. I forgot you got married. Last time we rode you were the swinging single.

Rode south of Strawberry today. Snow is just OK, decent for this time of year. Virtually no base, over the hood powder, but not very deep. In the lower elevations, riding on the tops of sagebrush. As we carefully worked higher, only about a foot more snow. The higher trees have nice, untouched powder, bottomless, and the tree wells will swallow you up in a heartbeat! The out of towners had a fine time, so it was a success. No rocks or stumps, but down to the ground with a few trenches. Still not the carefree powder with a good base, but a great start to the season.

Went up there Christmas eve, and it was pretty sketchy... Heard we were supposed to get 5 feet of snow this week, and it never happened... I guess I shouldn't be too surprised... I'm used to the disappointment now.
Anybody been up there lately? We are headed up this morning to test a couple of sleds I bought.

Plenty of snow
I was just up there this weekend. There is PLENTY of snow. Friday was absolutely awesome. By Saturday it was pretty tracked up but still plenty of snow.
