FOUR
FEET AND COUNTING - Utah Snow Totals Continue to Rise
Utah's first significant
winter storm of the season has ski resorts scrambling to open their lifts.
Since the storm began late last week as much as 48 inches of 'The Greatest
Snow on Earth' has fallen in Utah's Wasatch Mountains. The National Weather
Service is forecasting an additional 12-24 inches over the next 24 hours
with more snow expected at the end of next week.
Brighton,
Utah - Brighton will be opening on Thursday, November 06, for
the 03.04 snow season!
The Majestic double
chair and Explorer triple chair will both be running
initially. More chairs will open as resources become available.
The Snake Creek Express
Quad will open by Friday, November 07 and the Crest Express Quad will
open at sometime Saturday, November 08.
Lift tickets will
be $35 initially and will rise to normal rates ($41 for an all area day
ticket) as more terrain opens ('Learner' lift tickets are available for
Majestic and Explorer ONLY for $25).
Some rails, funboxes
and other 'jibs' will be placed in the Terrain Park area by the weekend
for people to play on also.
The snow is incredible.
We have recieved over 70 inches of snowfall since September (over 60 inches
since Halloween). Our current mid-mountain base is 38 inches and rising.
Snow is forecasted to continue off and on for the next week or so. It's
a great way to start the season!
