Salt Lake City, UT – Ski Utah has joined with a group of local skiers to attempt to ski all 14 Utah resorts in a single day tomorrow.
The group approached Ski Utah in their attempt to become the first in history to ski all 14 Utah resorts in a single day in exchange for raising funds to benefit Huntsman Cancer Institute, Leukemia and Lymphoma Society and The National Ability Center in Park City. Canyon Transportation is also donating their services to make this mission possible.
The skiers, 14 in total, are challenging the previous Ski Utah record of successfully skiing 13 resorts in one day which was set January 13, 2009. Since that time, Utah’s fourteenth resort – Eagle Point – opened near Beaver, Utah.
