How should you store gear in Cottonwood Heights?
Rotate by season: keep the coming season's equipment near the unit door and swap as the snow arrives or melts. Dry everything first — boots, tents, and pads should be fully dry before they go in. Use climate control for waxed skis and snowboards, wood, and electronics, since interior units avoid the freeze-bake cycle a garage goes through. Shelve vertically to use the unit's full height, and keep an aisle down the middle so mid-season swaps take minutes, not an afternoon.
