Snowbird Ski and Summer Resort

For the 2015/16 season, Snowbird is introducing over $35 million in resort improvements, all designed to enhance the guest experience. Upgrades include The Summit at Snowbird, a renovated Cliff Lodge, increased snowmaking and RFID/smartcard passes. The Summit, a new facility at the top of the iconic Aerial Tram, features dining, retail, guest services and unmatched views of the Wasatch Mountains.

Located six miles up Little Cottonwood Canyon, Snowbird is just a scenic 45 min drive from Salt Lake City International Airport, making same-day skiing and flying a reality. The resort has a wide variety of terrain for everyone to enjoy time on the slopes. Intermediate and advanced skiers will find endless opportunities in the Bird’s winter playground while beginners have options all over the mountain to hone in their skills.

Winter activities go beyond skiing and riding through Snowbird’s 2,500 acres. Take a ride on the wild side and explore the backcountry via heli-skiing, snowcat skiing and snowmobile tours or slow down and experience the Bird on snowshoes.

While consistently ranking high in snow, terrain and accessibility, Snowbird provides an equally impressive experience off the slopes, resulting in ski vacations as memorable as the mountain. Four lodges conveniently nestled in Snowbird’s pedestrian village provide guests with easy access to the facilities. Heated outdoor swimming pools and hot tubs at the lodges and spa set the perfect stage for viewing the surrounding snowcapped granite peaks. With over 15 restaurants and eateries, the resorts dining options create unforgettable meals and offer an experience for every palate and pocketbook.
