First Snow of the Season Falls in Utah's Cottonwood Canyons
SALT LAKE CITY — Utah's Cottonwood Canyons received their first snowfall of the fall on Oct. 12. Solitude Mountain Resort, Alta Ski Area and Brighton Resort all shared snowfall photos on social media, the live cameras at all four canyon resorts showed solid accumulation at the summits, and Alta reported its first measurable snowfall of the season.
The storm is expected to continue through Oct. 14, with high-elevation areas potentially picking up more than a foot of snow in total while valley floors see mainly rain.
Resort operators cautioned that the early-season snow is not enough to open any runs, but it gives the 2026-27 ski season an encouraging start.
