Really interesting site design. With the large stationary background image serving to give the only real visual that would inform you about Utah (skiing), it’s bold. Then there’s a fixed top and footer navigation layout centered around what appears to be the main desired mode of interacting with the site’s content – the keyword search. I’m not 100% sold on that being so heavily focused on visually.

There are some pretty nice design treatments here with the ‘mega dropdowns’ in the header nav. Then there is the extra stuff that slides up from the footer that’s pretty well done. Overall i’d say spend some time on this site looking over all the details, it’s pretty good for that stuff.
