I usually goto Brighton 1x a yr. Always decent snow. Solitude is literally right next to Brighton and slightly less popular, so you may want to go there on a weekend to avoid longer lift lines. Weekdays shouldnt be a problem at either resort (or any in the greater SLC area for that matter)

If youre a solid rider and into open terrain, Snowbird is the way to go. Some of the best terrain/snow you'll ever experience.

If youre into park riding, Park City is the place to go. I think they have 4 different parks as of last year, and IIRC was rated top park in the country last winter.


I grew up in Park City so feel free to PM me (or ask here) any utah related questions. I can probably help direct you to some of the less tourist-y places.

If you like hot blonde chicks 18-21 that decided that they don't want religion and want sex & booze, Utah is the best.

****ing plane ticket to salt lake city is 500 bucks.... if it were 300 or less i could do it, but i actually have this trip with my school (UCF) and they are taking 13 people to lake tahoe, NV for 6 days with a 6 day rental, lift pass and at a nice lodge for 1000 bucks for everything except food, so turns out im doing this to save some cash.

So, Lake Tahoe any good?
