Skiing Powder Mountain, Utah

Until yesterday, I had heard a lot about about Powder Mountain, but never had a chance to ski it.

This lesser known ski resort located east of Eden, Utah, in the North of the state, straddling Weber and Cache counties and distant 55 miles (89 km) from Salt Lake City airport.

Yet, this is no small resort as it covers 8,464 acres (34.3 km2) and is, in - at least on paper - the United States’ largest ski resort by skiable acreage.

I skied with Ski Utah’s chief, Nathan Rafferty, tried to keep up with him in a raging blizzard and had a memorable time in the process.

I’ll be back to Powder Mountain!
