Park City Mountain ski patrol ends strike after wage agreement in Utah

The Park City Mountain ski patrol in Utah ended a 13-day strike after the resort agreed to raise wages by $2 an hour. The new contract will last until 2027 and sets starting pay for entry-level patrollers at $23 an hour. The strike caused long wait times for ski lifts, frustrating many visitors. The resort operated at limited capacity during the work stoppage, impacting guests who had traveled long distances for their ski trips. The agreement follows eight months of negotiations. Both the resort and the union expressed satisfaction with the deal, which aims to restore normal operations at the ski resort.
