Snowbird

Perched in Utah's Wasatch Mountains, Snowbird stands as one of North America's most remarkable alpine destinations. Rising dramatically from 7,760 to 11,000 feet, this powder-blessed resort delivers more than 500 inches of pristine snow annually. Since 1971, Snowbird has earned its reputation for challenging terrain, remarkable views, and an exceptionally long season that can stretch into May and beyond.
