The article describes how lawsuits against ski areas in Utah have increased

Posted: January 25, 2011 | Author: | Filed under: Ski Area |Leave a comment

Probably, because the Utah Supreme Court has opened several ways people can sue a ski area in Utah and the Wyoming Recreation Statute has been weakened by recent decisions.

The article describes two fatalities, one in Utah and one in Wyoming. Based on these two lawsuits, suing ski areas is back in vogue? However, the author is probably correct because the defenses available to ski areas in both states have been weakened over the past couple of years.
