Utah’s ski resorts are some of the best in the country, but the fun doesn’t stop when the ski season ends. Most resorts are open for summer activities, and if you want to see some of Utah’s most incredible natural beauty, these resorts are the place to be. There’s a gorgeous restaurant at one of Utah’s popular resorts, and you’ll take a tram to reach it.
Summer at Snowbird Resort is magical. The mountain air is fresh and clean, and the scenery is spectacular. You’ll find Snowbird at the top of Little Cottonwood Canyon.
