Mountain Report

Summer Operations

Saturdays and Sundays 9am to 4pm

Get ready for a packed weekend at Snowbasin, with partly cloudy skies and highs around 72 degrees making for perfect conditions to be outside. Kick things off Thursday, August 13th, with Sunset Social from 5pm to 9pm at Needles Lodge, featuring Fireball Cinnamon Whiskey and live music from Tim Daniels starting at 6pm. The Bike Park powered by SCOTT stays open late that evening too, running from 4pm to 8pm.

Saturday and Sunday bring Blues & Brews back to the base area from 12pm to 6pm for our Art Walk Weekend, with local artists and vendors set up throughout the venue alongside the music. Saturday's lineup features Lake Effect at 1:15pm and Gallivant headlining at 4pm, while Sunday brings Ben Musser & Walker Young at 1:15pm followed by Pixie + Party Grass Boys at 4pm. Close out the weekend with Mountain-Top Brunch at Needles Lodge on Sunday from 10am to 2:30pm (reservations required, so book early).

One trail note for Saturday: all on-mountain hiking and biking trails will be closed from 7am to 4pm for the Interscholastic Mountain Bike Races. If you'd like to ride, our Bike Park powered by SCOTT will be open throughout the closure.

The Bike Park is closed today during Sunset Social (4pm to 8pm) due to weather and trail conditions.

All guests must use access gates regardless of website status. Website information is intended to inform the guest of terrain status, but it is the guest’s responsibility to confirm the area is open by entering through an access gate.  Signage on the mountain supersedes website information. Failure to use access gates may result in loss of pass privileges.
