Utah Ski Openings Slide as Park City Delays Without New Date

Unseasonable warmth with fizzled storms leaves openings dependent on brief snowmaking windows.

Overview

  • Park City Mountain postponed its planned Nov. 21 start and gave no new date, telling guests it will update once conditions allow.
  • Solitude issued a third delay and is now targeting Thanksgiving Day, Nov. 27, according to an email to passholders.
  • Alta said its operations team will decide Tuesday night whether to open Friday, with a public update expected by Wednesday morning.
  • Brian Head reported 6 inches of new snow Monday, with forecasts calling for additional accumulation and temperatures supportive of snowmaking ahead of its target date.
  • Recent storms produced only trace to a few inches across much of northern Utah, and Park City reports no measurable snowfall since October as crews await colder temperatures to ramp up snowmaking.
