Things To Do

We know may of our guests are planning to visit the ski resorts while here in Salt Lake City so we wanted to provide some information to help you plan your trips. During and after storms, the traction laws go into effect in Big and Little Cottonwood Canyons that require cars to have snow tires or chains. Also please note that traffic in the canyons gets very backed up in the afternoons/evenings (after 3pm) and can take hours to get down so plan accordingly.

Snowbasin Resort

3925 Snow Basin Road, Huntsville, UT 84317

We skied here for our first 5 winters in Utah. It's gorgeous and underrated! It's a bit longer drive than the SLC area resorts, but definitely worth it. A good option if you prefer a later start or if the traction laws are in effect in the Cottonwood canyons.

Brighton Ski Resort

8302 S Brighton Loop Rd, Brighton, UT 84121

Brighton is probably the best resort for beginners. Parking fills up fast so make sure you get there early, before it opens. They also have night skiing!

Solitude Mountain Resort

12000 South Big Cottonwood Canyon Road, Solitude, UT 84121

The least crowded resort in the area and good for intermediate skiiers/snowboarders. Parking is paid but the prices decreases with each additional person in the car.

Alta Ski Area

10010 Little Cottonwood Canyon Road, Alta, UT 84092

One of the most popular resorts in Utah and skiers only. Parking reservations are required ($25) and the parking lots don't open until 8am.

Snowbird

9385 Snowbird Center Drive, Snowbird, UT 84092

Another one of the most popular resorts in Utah. Parking is free but you have to get there very early for a spot. It's best for advanced skiers/snowboarders.

Sundance Film Festival

Park City, UT

Sundance Film Festival is back in person. It starts on January 19, 2023 and tickets for individual movies go on sale January 12.
