SALT LAKE CITY — Utah's ski resorts love the sight of snow near springtime.
With a slow start to the ski season, the industry is hoping for a strong finish. The storm that dumped as many as 20 inches of snow in the Wasatch mountains Thursday and Friday helped.
Ski Utah president Nathan Rafferty said Friday that his group won't have seasonal skier visit totals for the 13 Utah resorts until after April.
Rafferty says the slumping economy has been hard on resorts because people aren't booking big trips in advance like they used to. So the longer winter storms continue, the better the finish for resorts.
