Wyoming ski area open for first time in five years

POWELL, Wyo. (AP) — Sleeping Giant Ski Area in northern Wyoming is opening to skiers for the first time since 2004.

The ski area’s operators originally had hoped to open Thanksgiving weekend, but plans were foiled by insufficient snow.

Sleeping Giant Ski Area calls itself one of America’s oldest ski areas, having originally opened in the late 1930s. It’s about 50 miles west of Cody, Wyo., and three miles from the east entrance of Yellowstone National Park, and includes 900 vertical feet for downhill, a terrain park, cross-country trails, a ski and snowboard school, and a day lodge with snack bar.
