New Year Brings Massive Winter Storms to Utah

01-08-2008


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 resorts, or skiing and
snowboarding in Utah can be found at www.skiutah.com.
