Alta
Alta Ski Area, located in Little Cottonwood Canyon, is an old-world, skiers-only mountain beloved for its dedication to pure powder skiing. The quiet, welcoming town of Alta is perfect for those who are looking to ski hard by day and relax by night. Families also love the first-rate Alf Engen ski school.
Brighton
Long a local favorite, Brighton is one of few resorts in Utah to offer bona fide night skiing on 22 lighted runs, and one of the first to embrace snowboarding . A-frame base lodges and a refreshing lack of overdevelopment give Brighton a classic ski resort feel. Located in Big Cottonwood Canyon.
The Canyons
With 3,700 acres and 8 mountain peaks, every skier can find an amazing amount of terrain to his or her liking. The Canyons also enjoys close access to Park City nightlife, dining and shopping .

Park City Mountain Resort
The signature resort of Park City with easy access to everything the town has to offer, visitors will find 104 runs, 4 terrain parks, and a superpipe.
Powder Mountain
Family owned since 1972, Powder Mountain is Utah's best-kept secret, averaging 500" of snowfall on 5,500 acres just outside of Ogden. Low-key and family-oriented, it is a delight for those who are looking to enjoy a leisurely day of skiing sans the crowds.
Snowbasin
Undeniably world-class in its terrain, lifts, and day lodge amenities, Snowbasin served as a venue for the 2002 Olympic Games, and is becoming deservedly more well-known as a result. Located just outside of Ogden.
Snowbird
Snowbird, along with Alta, is consistently ranked among the top resorts in North America for its steep terrain and light "lake effect" snow. Recent lift improvements have made it easier to take advantage of intermediate and beginner terrain, and its alpine village offers plentiful lodging and dining options.
Solitude Mountain Resort
Uniquely designed to present a tranquil contrast to the typical hustle and bustle of ski resorts, Solitude prides itself on uncrowded runs and a quiet European village feel. Nevertheless, this resort offers full-service amenities such as gourmet restaurants, spa, and a first-rate ski school.
