Video of Snowbasin patroller using expletive spurs outrage

OGDEN — A video in which a Snowbasin ski patroller is seen reprimanding a snowboarder before directing an obscenity toward another guest has gone viral, sparking an online discussion as to whether snowboarders are singled out at ski resorts.

In the video, which was captured and posted Tuesday on vimeo.com, a Snowbasin ski instructor and a ski patroller stop snowboarder Austen Knudson, of Layton, on Bear Hollow, a run that is often crowded because it begins at the bottom of the Middle Bowl area where several runs converge.

Plenty of skiers and snowboarders are lining up to catch chairlifts and gondolas at Snowbasin Resort, which has snow, thanks to snowmaking machines. (ERIN HOOLEY/Standard-Examiner)
