Utah Ski Deals
Experiencing The Greatest Snow on Earth® doesn’t have to break the bank. From the Rocky Mountains in the north to the southern red rock country, there’s a Utah ski resort for every budget.
Looking for a family-friendly resort that offers additional activities? Check out Cherry Peak Resort or Woodward Park City. For unique red-rock landscapes, Brian Head Resort won’t disappoint. If you want to work on your skills weekly, Powder Mountain and Nordic Valley have lower costs and smaller crowds. Utah ski resorts deliver no matter what ski experience you want.
Discount Lift Tickets
The easiest way to save money on lift tickets? Purchase in advance. On average, guests save 30 percent on lift tickets (at most resorts) by purchasing them in advance through the resort website. Ski and board during the week — instead of weekends or holidays — to avoid crowds and get an even better price.
