Late April AGW update from Utah
A picture from Cirque Traverse (just downhill of the peak of 11,000 feet above sea level) dated today from Snowbird, Utah, which is still open for skiing.
The resort website says: "Snowbird is still open daily and there is 11" of fresh snow waiting to be skied. Come up and enjoy the sunshine!"
The snow report indicates that the total snowfall this season thus far has been 612 inches, or about 20% greater than the average total seasonal snowfall.
Some energetic two-sport locals will ski 18,000 vertical feet in the morning (equal to 6 rides up the tram), and play 18 holes of golf in the afternoon down valley at 4,500 feet above sea level, near Salt Lake City.
