Jackson Hole ski resort forced to close after 'unusual' storm
New York
WYOMING'S Jackson Hole got more of the snow that skiers crave last week, but the heavy winds that came with it knocked out power and forced the area's famed resort to close through the weekend.
"This was a very unusual event for us," said Anna Cole, a spokeswoman for the Jackson Hole Mountain Resort, where the slopes were emptied, hotel guests were relocated and the electricity remained off last Thursday. "This will probably be the longest time that we will have to close during our operating season in our history."
