Jackson Hole Mountain Resort in Wyoming reopened Monday
morning with what resort officials say is the country's deepest snowpack.
The ski resort had shut down for five days because high winds
knocked out power. A storm with winds of up to 90 miles per hour blew down
power poles on the area's Highway 390 and caused power outages throughout the
region.
Jackson Hole reopened with 434 inches of cumulative snowfall
and a snow depth of more than 11 feet on the upper part of the mountain after
receiving steady snowfall last week.
