12/19: White Xmas probability

Dygytyz · 12-19-2001, 01:27 PM

Already at Alta Ski Resort (just east of Salt lake City), 236" of snow has been received in the last 28 days, and I think it snowed again last night. So, folks, if you plan on coming to SLC for the Hellympics, there will be snow and plenty of it.

The problem, however, is that snow in the valley doesn't stay white for more than a few hours. After all of the industrial and automobile pollution, oil from the bottom of cars, oil from asphalt, and dirt in general works it's way into the snow, all you have left is brown muddy slush.

It's disgusting. I think I will head out of the valley this weekend and go snowshoeing up one of the canyons and get some fresh air, sunshine, and maybe work on my chipmunk tan.
