Snowbird Utah

Snowbird is in many skiers’ top 10 places to ski list. With tons of terrain, and tons of dry fluffy Utah snow, Snowbird is a great place to spend a week. The terrain off the summit Tram is amazing, whether you ski the steep Cirque, over to Mineral basin, or down 2.5 mile long Chip's Run to the base. Snowbird has a very long season due to its 500 inches of annual snow, its high elevation and dry climate.

Located in the Wasatch National Forest in Little Cottonwood Canyon,Snowbird is a great snowy destination for a week of family skiing, just 29 mile from Salt Lake City Airport. The Snowbird ski and ride school has excellent programs for your kids, and Big Emma is a wide open run perfect for beginners and intermediates. With interconnected lift tickets available to ski Alta, you won't run out of terrain, but you might run out of steam. The Cliff Lodge at Snowbird’s base provides posh four diamond hotel lodging, a beautiful roof top spa for that après ski massage and soak, and top floor scenic dining.
