AirDNA’s Fact of the Week:

The EPIC record snowfall has allowed extended seasons for several ski destinations including Mammoth Lakes (Mammoth Mountain), Sawtooth Mountain (Sun Valley), and Park City, Utah. April demand is pacing more than 30% higher than this time last year in each of these areas and is over 70% higher in Mammoth Lakes, where snow has been so abundant that the resort is currently expected to stay open until July, potentially contributing to demand in the Mammoth Lakes market for several more months.
