A $592-million, 8-mile gondola? Or $510 million for enhanced bus service with a wider road?
Those two options have so far made the cut as the most viable solutions to solving the snarl of traffic in Little Cottonwood Canyon on powder days, when thousands of skiers and snowboarders flock to experience what’s made Utah famous: the Wasatch Mountains’ “greatest snow on Earth.”
The Utah Department of Transportation isn’t slated to make a final recommendation between those two options from its draft environmental impact study until this upcoming 2021-22 ski season.

ST. GEORGE After 47 focus group discussions to consider a possible name change for Dixie State University, 65% of participants support a change that does not include the name Dixie, according to results released on Wednesday.
A name that includes Utah emerged as the top theme among six presented to focus group participants. The least favorite theme, by far, was Deseret. Sounds strictly like a religious school, one participant said. I m an active Latter-day Saint, and I think it s a terrible idea, said another.
Others said it looks like a typo while another said it would be an immediate turnoff, maybe even more than Dixie.
