A deepening closed upper low over the Great Basin region tracked east across the central Rockies.  This caused a surface low over the central Rockies to deepen rapidly by mid to late morning.  Very strong southwesterly to westerly winds started as early as late morning, and peaked in the late afternoon to early evening.  Highest wind gust recorded was 67 MPH just 2 miles NW of Lake McClellan.  Power poles were reported to be downed in other areas, so higher gusts are certainly possible.  In addition to multiple 60+ MPH wind gusts, there were several 40+ MPH sustained winds observed.
