Memea tries to project that confidence onto his passengers, who often turn to UTA on big snow days to avoid driving their own vehicles in the canyon. “In pitch black darkness, I can read the curves, I know the curves, I know every turn,” he expressed. For Memea, he doesn’t mind the big snow days, in fact, he feels confident driving in them. With record snowfall amounts in the Cottonwoods for the 2022-23 season, road conditions in the canyons have often been challenging. “Definitely more (snow) than I’ve seen being a bus driver, but the more white stuff, the better.” He said he loves the winding roads and the snow-covered trees. Memea spends several shifts a week driving to the resorts in Big and Little Cottonwood canyons. “It’s my dream job, ever since I can remember, since I was 6 or 7, I’ve wanted to be a bus driver,” he said.
