PARK CITY, Utah — It’s been a historic year for nearly every ski resort in the west, with records thought to be out of reach being broken.

Park City Mountain is the newest edition to the list as the resort has officially surpassed 500 inches of snow, breaking the record for the highest snowfall total in the 49-year history of record keeping at the resort.

Like many transplants to Utah, Kevin started his journey to Park City as a ski instructor in 2014 and fell in love with the mountains enough to stay. A skier since the age of 2 and a half, he still gets excited about carving turns down the slopes and hopping into the powder on snow days. Kevin's passion for storytelling and photography led him to a second bachelor's degree focused on communications and fine art photography from the University of Utah. Paired with his first undergrad in ecology from Oklahoma State University, Kevin particularly enjoys writing environmental and nature stories. In his spare time, you can usually find him in his jeep looking for wildlife and landscapes to photograph.
