Mountain Operations Closed for the Remainder of the Winter Season

In response to the increased risk that COVID-19 poses to our staff and guests, we are halting operations for the season starting March 16. Unfortunately, we need to do what’s best for as many people as possible and believe it is our duty to close Snowbasin for the remainder of winter operations. All winter lift tickets, lessons, or rentals that were purchased online and dated March 16, 2020 or later will be refunded automatically within 14 business days. If you have questions or concerns please contact us at: 801-620-1000 or .(JavaScript must be enabled to view this email address).

Your quick escape from anything ordinary with one of the most uniquely built and situated mountain lodges on earth. Take in stunning, panoramic views to the sounds of a crackling fire while dining on delectable sandwiches, grilled meats and fresh salads. One twelve-minute lift ride is all it takes. Dining options both inside and out. Great place for skiers, riders and more adventurous foot passengers looking to enjoy a scenic open-air chairlift.

Intermediate Abilities Welcome

Snowbasin's Mountain Operations team has been hard at work the past few summers. With the widening of Mt. Ogden Bowl Road in 2018 and additional snowmaking added to the area in 2019, intermediates can easily enjoy this part of the mountain and all the cuisine John Paul Lodge has to offer.
