Powder Mountain, Utah, opened for the season on Thursday, December 7, 2023.

The team at Powder Mountain was thrilled to open after a storm that brought more than a foot of snow to kick off the season. So far this season the resort has seen 42 inches of snow in total, of which more than half fell just this week. Heavy snowfall is forecast for Monday and Tuesday next week as well, so why not make the most of the excellent early-season conditions in Utah, and come on down.
