On the day before Thanksgiving 2009, John Jones died and was later entombed in Utah's Nutty Putty Cave. This is my story on how, after 15 years, the tragedy keeps family, rescuers and even strangers in its grip. www.sltrib.com/news/environ... @sltrib @ucso #nuttyputty #searchandrescue

After delving into how Utah ski resorts name their lifts and runs, I couldn't help share some of the best background stories I came across. And no, I'm not touching Taint, Glory Hole or Organ Grinder. www.sltrib.com/sports/2024/... @sltrib.com @skiutah.bsky.social #snowbird #deervalley #alta

A coup, a band and a burger: How some of Utah’s most interesting ski runs and lifts got their names
The names of ski runs at Utah resorts can come from anywhere — rockstars, historical events and, well, rocks. Here is the history of some of our favorites.
