Snowbasin Resort, in the mountains near Ogden, will be re-opening for weekend summer skiing beginning June 11. It is the first time the resort has opened in the summer!

Resort officials say above average snowpack and a 100-inch base will allow them to remain open as long as conditions allow. Skiers will be able to use the Needles Gondola to access multiple runs from 8 am to 2 pm. While the snowpack in the mountains of northern Utah has thrilled outdoor enthusiasts, it’s got officials worried about the potential for severe flooding once temperatures warm enough to melt it. 

Snowbasin is well known as the ultimate mountain luxury!  With diverse terrain for beginner ease to challenging expert runs, Snowbasin also offers three progressive terrain parks and 26km of groomed Nordic trails. With 3,000 skiable acres and 3,000 vertical feet, Snowbasin is best known for wide-open bowls, gladed runs, manicured groomers, powder stashes days after a storm, and rarely a lift line.

Snowbasin has world-class snowmaking and one of the most advanced lift systems in the West. Enjoy award-winning cuisine including mountaintop dining with spectacular views and magnificent day lodges.

Make the most of day on the mountain with more than 100 certified instructors, adaptive programs, state-licensed day care and children’s programs. And for more family fun, don’t miss the four-lane lift assisted tubing hill.

Snowbasin is just 35 miles north of Salt Lake City with easy access to the Park City Area.  Après ski in Downtown Ogden, just 17 miles away! How great it is to live in Ogden, Utah, where just miles away you can go snow skiing in the middle of summer!
