SALT LAKE CITY, UTAH- Major winter storms hit Utah ski resorts this past
weekend leaving as much as 34 inches at Utah ski resorts. With December
snow totals nearly 170% above average, these early January storms are
creating prime skiing conditions. Park City Resorts received as much as
29 inches in the last 72 hours and Powder Mountain, near Ogden, received
24 inches on Sunday alone. Weather forecasts suggest more storms are
anticipated to follow with as much as 18 inches of additional
precipitation.
Utah is home to 13 world-class ski resorts. Five of Utah's resorts
ranked in the Top Ten for "Best Snow" according to the readers of SKI
Magazine in the publication's 2007 survey. More information on Utah's
