Arrive early to park in close in parking lot, then eat breakfast at the base of the lifts. Beautiful view of Bear Lake from on top of the mountain.Great green trails for those who like easier skiing. Also plenty of blues and blacks.

Pricey. Parking inconvenient. Decent dining options

1/5 - Terrible

Verified traveler

Extremely crowded on the mountain which can be very dangerous when skiing. I will not hurry back on a weekend. We understand that they will sell 11k to 12k tickets when back in the say it was maybr 6k. Very greedy and sad.

I had to drop off my husband and son. This place was so well organized. Atleast the drop off situation was very fast. There were persons guiding us so it felt safe even though there must have been 300 persons there. Good Job guys!
