We’re ready for the slopes and powder that await us (see image below)! Winter is something to look forward to in the state with the greatest snow on Earth, and here’s why:

  • 13 ski resorts, most which are less than 40 miles from Salt Lake City
  • Nearly 400 inches average annual snowfall at the resorts
  • Nearly 27,000 skiable acres
  • More than 1,100 ski runs
  • Snowboarding allowed at 11 out of the 13 resorts

Ski (or snowboard) on!
