COTTONWOOD HEIGHTS — Snowy weather conditions and struggling vehicles closed down Big Cottonwood Canyon Saturday morning, according to the Utah Department of Transportation. In an X post from UDOT, the forecast around state Route 190 and state Route 210 showed snow showers in the upper part of the canyon. https://twitter.com/UDOTcottonwoods/status/1880632240599892014 The Salt Lake County Sherrif's Office said crews were working "as safely & efficiently as possible" at Torpedo Hil and the mouth of the canyon to help keep traffic moving. State Route 190 has since been open, but the SLCSO is warning drivers of slick road conditions. Sheriffs are also wanting drivers to make sure their vehicles can handle these conditions.
