Deer Valley Ski Racing and NASTAR

Deer Valley Resort offers the excitement of ski racing at our Race Course on Bald Mountain near the Silver Lake Lodge. All races will be held Wednesdays through Sundays from 10 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. on the Dual GS venue (weather and conditions permitting). A great way to access the course is to ride either the Sterling Express or Wasatch Express chairlift and ski down Birdseye run to the top of the Race Course.

Our fun, competitive and easily accessible course allows racers of all ages to compete against each other or themselves in the pursuit to establish a personal record or improve their skills.

Guests may also participate in the NASTAR program at our race course, which is the largest recreational ski race program in the world. NASTAR stands for NAtional STAndard Race and gives recreational racers an opportunity to compete and compare their scores to friends and family regardless of when and where they race using the NASTAR handicap system. NASTAR was developed by SKI magazine in 1968 and now boasts more than 100,000 races at over 100 resorts around the country. Racers are scored by earning a handicap that represents their ability. The handicap provides participants with a tangible number, or handicap that is the percentage they are behind the time of the National Standard or National Pacesetter. Today, NASTAR is owned and operated by Outside Inc. NASTAR is bringing greater awareness to the sport and value to the industry while motivating participants of all ages to get involved in alpine racing.

Each time you race NASTAR, you could win a Platinum, Gold, Silver or Bronze medal based on the handicap you earn. To expedite the registration process, please complete the Race Hill Release Form online at EZwaiver.com.

If interested in participating in the NASTAR race program, guests must also complete the NASTAR pre-registration process online in advance at nastar.com.
