Eagle Point Resort will not be open for the upcoming ski season following devastation from the Cottonwood Fire. The Beaver County resort was heavily impacted by the flames in June, and subsequent flooding last month has further complicated the situation as cleanup efforts begin.

The resort's damage includes four of its five chairlifts, which require new parts that are expected to take months to arrive from overseas. Additionally, the fire destroyed the Canyonside Lodge as well as 145 homes and condos.

The resort is currently dealing with the aftermath of both the fire and recent floods, with the cleanup process only just beginning.
