Pioneer Day festivities carry into this weekend at Snowbasin, with sunny skies and highs in the high 70s making it the perfect escape from the valley.
Get the weekend started early with Thursday's Sunset Social, from 5pm to 10pm. Enjoy handcrafted cocktails from Don Fulano while Mountain Country Trio plays as the sun sets over the Wasatch Range. The Bike Park sticks around late that evening too, open from 4pm to 8pm, giving you extra time on the trails before settling in for a drink with a view.
The main event hits Saturday and Sunday with Blues & Brews, celebrating Pioneer Weekend in style. Look for tap-takeover beer carts and individual pies both days, a fitting nod to Utah's pioneer roots. Headshine and The Last Light headline Saturday's lineup, while Soul Tribute and Loom take over Sunday. Refuel with shared plates at The Cinnabar (open 12pm to 6pm) or hit the Bike Park, running 10am to 5pm both days.
Wrap up the weekend with Mountain-Top Brunch Buffet on Sunday, seated from 10am to 2:30pm at Needles Lodge, where the food and the view keep guests coming back. Reservations are required, so grab yours soon. With highs near 79 and Pioneer Weekend in full swing, there's plenty to bring you up the mountain this weekend.
