WILDFLOWER GRIZZLY

For Iconic Runs, seek out Grizzly Downhill and Wildflower Downhill. Both trails hosted downhill skiing events at the 2002 Salt Lake Olympic Games.

NO NACHO PROBLEMS

Gather the crew around the stacked Nachos found at Cinnabar, Overlook, and Needles Lodge. Piled high and perfect for sharing, these heaping, cheesy, and melty plates are never a problem to finish.

FIND JOHN PAUL

In-between runs, seek out John Paul Lodge. Not only is it one of the best selfie spots on the mountain – with views overlooking Mt. Ogden and Snowbasin’s iconic ridgeline – but it also happens to be one of the best lunch stops on the mountain, featuring Bavarian dining with an all-day waffle bar.

LOCATING THE LOCALS

Ride like a local while taking laps on the terrain off Strawberry Gondola. It features plenty of open space and is a local favorite on both sunny and snowy days.
