VIDEO: Winter WURL Traverse on Skis – 4 Days, 3 Nights, and 36 Miles in Primetime Ski Terrain

Clay Malott

“The Wasatch Ultimate Ridge Linkup (WURL) is a litmus test for trail-runners in the summer, but has never been done in the winter. A 58km continuous ridgeline visible from downtown Salt Lake City, UT, it forms a horseshoe around Little Cottonwood Canyon and the ski areas of Alta and Snowbird. After attempting the marathon in the summer, Mali Noyes and Lani Bruntz set out to ski and explore some of the Wasatch’s most iconic peaks and complete a continuous traverse of the WURL in the winter.”
