My family in the Midwest has decided not to visit Utah this year because of the Mormon church's involvement in Prop.8. We all will meet in January in Colorado. I am asking friends who used ski here to boycott Utah and ski Colorado.

tobiasrex: FACT, not everyone in utah is mormon. Also, the snow is still better in utah than colorado. My colorado friends also believe this to be true. So i guess its your loss not ski in utah.

As tobias mentioned above, I'm thinking not only the economy but the mormon church foray into the political arena in california are going to more than offset whatever the state can spend on ads.

As this might be one of the last years to ski the greatest snow on earth due to global warming, I will NOT boycott the ski resorts. I am, however boycotting all ward road shows and will not eat lunch at Dee's family restaurant.

You support gays rights to protest but not our right to protest? My religion has been given the constitutional right to speak and declare right or wrong on any issue EVEN IF IT IS POLITICAL!

So the Gay's and their support prove their hypocracy.

Then they prove their idiocy by boycotting Utah and blaming the LDS church and it's members FOR THE 52%!! of California THAT VOTED!!! IDIOTIC!

Boycott Utah. I'll have better ski slopes. I'll live happier with Segregation. Segregation of people who are intolerant with those who are not.

My LDS friends, My non-LDS friends, and even my GAY friends will ski with me while you all lose out because NONE OF US, including my gay friends, BLAME THE LDS CHURCH!!

America is losing what it means to have logic, common sense, and a basic understanding of what intelligent philosophy is.

For a millenia man has known that marriage is sacred, it is for opposites, and is the only way to have children and GROW as a population.

Would you all treat George Washington, John Adams, or Lincoln with such disrespect? They were obviously not in favor of Gay marriage. OH, I GUESS IT'S THE MORMONS FAULT!?!?

Utah is a pretty hate state.

No thanks. Like thousands of other skiers, I won't be skiiing in Utah this season.

The world has been watching your church's involvement with proposition 8. I wish your ski industry the best of luck. They will need it this season.

Go ahead and boycott Utah; things here have become too liberal anyway. I long for the days when I first came here and skiing was $20.00 a day; Parkwest was $200.00 for a season's pass - and SLC stopped at 90th South. I'll take the old Park City over the "new" any day. Utah hasn't "progressed", it has regressed by trying to be a Colorado wannabe. The worst thing that happened to Utah was the Olympics and all it has done (or "not") to Utah.

Stay home, let Utah be the nice place it was pre-Olympics. As a non MO, I am grateful there is at least one religion that has the guts to stand up for what it believes - regardless of the (financial) consequences. The LDS Church can't be bought. So, forget the threats and hop the first plane to Denver. Gay marriage will never be accepted here.

I think hater anti-Mormons overestimate their influence in the Prop 8 debate. A majority of people in the US have consistently voted against legalizing same sex marriage, so I doubt the boycott of a few loud mouth sore losers will hurt the ski industry very much.

Cheez since when did white powder become so political. What a bad rap. Its all about the SNOW Simple white quiet sparkling cold SNOW. Enjoy it.

Ya, Im looking forward to a socialist President, I'm sure he will solve all social ills.

I'm asking you, your family, and your friends the same thing -- stay out of Utah!

By all means, stick with pricier and inferior Colorado mountains and snow! It'll just make the skiing better in Utah for real skiers.
