The multicolored whale sculpture in Salt Lake’s 9th and 9th neighborhood has become the unofficial mascot of Utah’s epic winter, with tongue-in-cheek devotees crediting the creature for an unprecedented ski season. WasatchSnow
“I think the nice thing is no matter where you ski, if you’re a skier or snowboarder, it’s something that’s in the culture,” said Amirault. “It’s not unique to skiers or snowboarders or one specific resort, and something that everyone can share in, which is super special.”
Two snow whales are shown in front of the home of Travis Callison and Rachael Jampolaky. The couple made them after two recent snowstorms. “We’re kind of going with the theme that, well, since we put the whale [snow] sculpture up, we actually brought some more snow — enough snow that it made a baby,” Callison said.
