Headed to SLC this weekend. Unfortunately, doesn't look like there's much snow... where's the best place to go in this situation between Snowbird, the Canyons, Solitude and Brighton? Do any of these places have better snowmaking coverage than others making more terrain available? Thanks!
FWIW IMO if it is going to be strictly groomers go to Solitude especially on weekends.
Get discount lift tickets in town at one of the shops that sell them.
Take a trip down to moab and go climbing! I'd scratch the Canyons, too. It'll all be dicey, so it'll be a toss-up. Locals say Brighton. If you're a traveler/visitor, I suggest the Bird just to check it out.
Thanks for the responses guys. Love Utah and hit it up twice last year. Went to Canyons, Snowbird, Solitude, and Brighton, but I got lucky and the conditions were awesome each time. I'll take the advice and avoid Canyons this time around.
I was in Park City about 2 years ago... I went to PCM and the Canyons. Canyons is fun if you stay in the middle runs. The ones on the edge will strand you... lots of polling on skis. boarding those runs is no fun.
out of curiosity, how come park city mountain is not on your list?
Because of the lack of snow, Brighton or Solitude are probably the best bet right now. While opening day was sick at canyons (untracked tree runs all day), its tracked out and icy now, with their mini terrain park being the only redeeming quality. Snowbird is fun, but no new snow there either.
Yea I think Brighton is the only place with upper areas open, summit and sunrise are still closed at Solitude, snowbird might have Peruvian express running as of today not sure but I can't image coverage Is tthat great unless their blowin like crazy.
