Snow Arrives in the Valley

Snow arrived in Ogden Valley just in time for the 2008 Presidential Election. Some of the local shredders at Powder Mountain took advantage of the snow even though the lifts aren’t running just yet.


Projected opening dates for the Ogden Valley ski resorts are: Powder Mountain – November 22; Snowbasin – November 27; and Wolf Creek Utah Ski Resort – November 22. Check out the lodging specials and winter events here. Opening dates depend on the cooperation of Mother Nature, even for the resorts with snowmaking capability. Powder Hounds might want to think about a party honoring Ullr, the Nordic Ski God. Legend has it that the bigger the parties celebrating Ullr, the bigger the snowfall that season.
