Eagle Point Opens

The southern Utah ski area Eagle Point opened for the season this weekend, a month later than last winter because of a lack of snowfall. Eagle Point is the rebranded ski area once known as Elk Meadows, about 18 miles east of Beaver. It had been shut down for eight years when a New York hedge fund took over operations.
Eagle Point operations manager Lane Tucker says the slopes are covered with 12 to 18 inches of snow.
