New snow allows Snowbird to offer extra ski days

Snowbird ski resort will be open Thursday through Sunday this week, giving skiers two bonus days because snow conditions are so good at the mountain resort.

This is the longest ski season in Utah history and Snowbird is celebrating by staying open weekends through Memorial Day. The extra days are possible because a slow-moving storm dumped more than a foot of new snow at the resort early in the week, with another foot or more expected through the rest of the week.
