Show Ski Information On Telephone for All Over State Powder buffs and fair weather skiers may now dial a ski telephone line for information infor-mation on snow and weather conditions at all of Utah's 14 resorts. Snow conditions (packed or powder), total snow depth, new snow, lifts in operation, road conditions and weather forecasts for all Utah ski areas are reported in a recorded recor-ded message compiled daily at 7 a.m. by the Utah Travel Council. The report is updated up-dated during the day if there is a significant change in ski conditions. The snow report number is (801) 521-8102. Seven Utah ski areas are now open, all reporting good to excellent conditions on snow depths of up to 5 feet. Skiers are reminded that snow tires or chains in possession are required in Big and Little Cottonwood canyons until March 31, 1978. Four wheel drive and front-wheel drive vehicles are not exempt from this regulation. Current highway information infor-mation is available from the Utah Department of Transportation, Tran-sportation, (801) 532-6000. Information on ski touring conditions is also available through the U.S. Forest Service, Ser-vice, (801) 486-6333. |
