On a recent drive back from Park City, I watched my car’s temperature gauge plummet as I descended into the great, gray blanket that is Salt Lake City’s ever-present inversion. Like an unwanted suitor, this muggy mess is relentless, suffocating…and a bit of a buzzkill.
Escape it with a quick drive up your closest canyon, where blue skies, warmer temperatures, and fresh air await you. Go skiing, snowshoeing, or simply play in the snow, and enjoy the freedom of being above it all.
