From egg runs to avalanche traps, this is what life was like in Little Cottonwood Canyon when the Utah Department of Transportation shut down State Route 210 for the better part of two weeks earlier this month.
Dave Fields | Snowbird Snowbird employees dig out the resort during the first week of interlodge at the resort in April 2023. UDOT shut down State Route 210 through Little Cottonwood Canyon for the better part of two weeks because of the risk of avalanches crossing the road.The powder cloud towering over the pine trees told Steven Clark all he thought he needed to know.
Though their situation wasn’t nearly as dire, the residents and ski resort guests and other workers who were caught in the canyon during the first two weeks of April can sympathize. A heavy snowfall followed by a sudden heat wave caused avalanches to besiege SR 210 and forced UDOT to cut off travel in the canyon during most of the first two weeks of April. Twice it ordered complete shutdowns, one stretching across five days and another across three.

While those employees were wondering when they could go home, those who couldn’t get up the canyon to work were wondering how they were going to make rent. Those concerns became even more urgent when, after four days of allowing but sharply limiting travel in the canyon, UDOT closed SR 210 again from April 11-13. Fields said Snowbird worked with employees to ensure they would still get at least a partial paycheck.
