Snowbird Skiing
Boasting the most vertical feet in the state you will see why Travel Channel has picked Snowbird as one of North America's top ten ski resorts.
Having access to two different resorts with a combo ticket will double your skiing pleasure, and with the Snowbird-Alta Ticket Combo you will get just that at two award-winning ski resorts. Snowbird Resort recently installed a high-speed chairlift in the Mineral Basin that expanded their terrain and created a lift connection to the neighboring Alta ski area, offering convenient access to both resorts. Snowbird Resort has an average snowfall of 500 inches of light powder and with its varied terrain, offers excellent skiing and snowboarding for all ability levels. Boasting the most vertical feet in the state, you will see why Travel Channel has picked Snowbird as one of North America's top 10 ski resorts.
Alta Resort is one of Utah's premier resorts and has been in operation for 66 years. Located at the top of Little Cottonwood Canyon it offers beautiful scenery and panoramic views. Alta takes skiing seriously and snowboarding is not permitted. The whole family will have fun here no matter what level of expertise you have.
