You've likely heard by now, but we're expecting a Super El Niño weather pattern this winter. If the faucet turns on, we could be skiing A LOT of The Greatest Snow on Earth® this winter!
Below you'll find opening dates for the 2026–27 season, including snow report information and links to uphill travel policies. Until then, get your booty in shape or hit a ski swap for killer gear deals.
For uphill policy information (we see you go-getters!), visit our dedicated uphill travel/backcountry skiing information page. Please remember to always stay safe while skiing early season and venturing into the backcountry. An amazing resource for education and information is the Utah Avalanche Center.
Please note that all opening dates are conditions permitting and subject to change.
