(Rick Egan | The Salt Lake Tribune) Snowboarders are dwarfed by walls of snow, at Brighton Ski Resort, on Thursday, Jan. 26, 2023. Weak to moderate La Niña conditions delivered a record 903 inches of snow that season. This season, La Niña conditions will be weak or nonexistent, but don't expect a repeat of 2022-23.
