Snowbird, Utah

February 19 - 26, 2011

Snowbird's reputation for endless powder and uncrowded slopes offers some of the best powder skiing and some of the most challenging terrain in the world for ski enthusiasts, yet beginners and intermediates will enjoy the area as well. Snowbird offers a unique, slope side, pedestrian village, set against the rugged beauty of Little Cottonwood Canyon. Accommodations, restaurants and après ski venues offer everything from fondue to foosball. Shops, skiing, and all other activities are within easy walking distance.

With an average annual snowfall of more than 500 inches, Snowbird is anything but 'average'! Snowbird boasts the longest season of any other Utah resort with skiing and riding beginning mid-November and usually running through mid-May. Snowbird Ski & Summer Resort includes the finest facilities the skiing world has to offer combined with an unparalleled accessibility to Salt Lake City and international airport, a scenic 45-minute drive away. This means less time traveling and more time on the slopes making same-day skiing and flying a reality. Once at Snowbird, the only transportation needed is a pair of skis or a snowboard…the Tram and chairs provide the rest.
