POWDER MOUNTAIN — Utah may have The Greatest Snow on Earth, but Powder Mountain is the place really living up to that title.

According to the ski resort's website, the mountain has received a total of 319 inches of snow this season, about 26.5 feet. If you're a skier, you're probably thrilled. If you're the guy who found his truck buried by all that snow, you might be less thrilled.

This video shows a truck at Powder Mountain that was buried after a snowstorm earlier this January. Originally, the truck was barely visible due to the many feet of snow covering it. After some digging, the truck was able to move, but became a mini "powder mountain" itself.

According to comments on The Weather Channel's Facebook page, all this snow was from just one storm. I guess I should stop cursing Mother Nature when I wake up in the morning and realize I only have a few inches of snow to scrape off my car.
