Skiing is one of the most basic human traditions; slide down a snowy hill with some friends and enjoy time outside in the winter.

Timelapse by @NateinthewildHigher Ground: The Last Independent Ski Resorts in Utah. Episode 4 - Powder MountainThe Journal of Lost Time2024-03-10 | Powder Mountain is one of the crown jewels of Utah skiing. Absolutely massive and with strict limitations on visitor numbers makes this a resort with a guaranteed experience, even on holiday weekends. A place where you can find a powder stash days after the storm, and where you never have to worry about standing in line.
Well...at least that *used* to be the case. Sadly, new ownership means new rules, and as of 2024 the Powder Mountain that we all know and love has passed away. Replaced by another profit-first corporate monster determined to milk every single dollar out of it's customers by any means necessary. Sacrificing skier enjoyment for profit is the flavor du-jour in the ski industry, and Powder Mountain is simply it's latest victim.
Join TJOLT Creative Director Nate Luebbe as he explores Powder Mountain during it's last season before corporate greed scrubbed the charm from this mom-and-pop ski hill. Consider this our retrospective for what used to be, a eulogy to another independent ski resort that fell victim to American Capitalism.
