LITTLE COTTONWOOD CANYON, Utah â Some locations in Little Cottonwood Canyon have received nearly five feet of snow since the beginning of the week.
With the serious threat of avalanches near both Alta Ski Resort, Snowbird and along SR-210 (Little Cottonwood Canyon), the Town of Alta placed local buildings under âinterlodgeâ on Monday at 11 p.m.
âThe idea is you have to stay inside of a safe space, inside of a building and when thereâs maximum we actually require people to get into a safest part of a building,â said Harris Sondak, Mayor of the Town of Alta, who has lived there since 2004 and has experienced countless nights under interlodge.
