If your plans are heading down south, you'll find an amazing diamond in the rough located just outside of Beaver, Utah. Eagle Point features one major park called Park Lab. It has many features ranging from beginner to advanced. The most impressive is their arsenal of really fun jibs and unique setups. Some major draws to this resort are they have the shortest lift lines, cheapest lift tickets and still get over 350+ inches of snow, on average annually.

Snowbird is known as one of Utah's best resorts for big mountain terrain but many skip over the extremely fun and creative terrain park. Armed with a handful of super fun rails and boxes, as well as some of the most snow in the Wasatch, you can always have fun in the Big Emma Terrain Park. The difficulty varies in this park from beginner features to more intermediate terrain. So no matter your skill level, you can have fun lapping this small but mighty park offering.
