Eden, Utah, August 18, 2008 - Powder Mountain Resort has kicked off their new Summer Safari 4X4 Adventure Tours. The guided tours will take guests to spectacular sites with amazing views over the 10,000+ acres within the resort that would otherwise be inaccessible to the public by vehicle. It is a great excursion to check out fall colors in the Wasatch Mountains.
Powder Mountain mechanics, Roger Arave and Evan Miller, designed and built the off-road vehicle so that it could climb the steep and rocky terrain that serves as ski slopes during the winter months. 42 inch tires, a full roll cage and a canvas top in case of inclement weather provide a comfortable and safe excursion for guests. Incredible views, conquering steep slopes, and seeing wildlife in their native habitat create a memorable experience.
Each three-hour tour will be custom tailored to meet the desires of the individual guests and to take advantage of the changing scenery, wildlife, and weather. Typical areas to be explored include Lightning Ridge, Cobabe Canyon and Three Mile Trail to Hidden Lake. The overlook into Ogden Valley from the south end of the property should not be missed. The view from this point includes all of Ogden Valley, the Great Salt Lake, Uintah Mountains, Wyoming, Idaho and Nevada.
"We have been testing our new off-road vehicle for a number of weeks now and everyone from 5 to 90 years of age has loved the adventure," said Gregg Greer, President and CEO of Powder Mountain Resort Management. "We are excited to be offering this unique experience to guests showcasing the beauty of Powder Mountain even without all the powder."
