Powder Mountain

As ownership has changed so, unfortunately, has the vibe. Unfortunate because this was hands-down the best ski resort I've ever visited. It was like skiing with your best friends - at their house - even if you were by yourself you were around... friends. Not too many friends, mind you, it was and continues to be uncrowded and wide open. Despite the changes, the vibe is still pretty darned good. This is a great place to ski.

Fantastic experience. I have skied Alta, Snowbird, Brighton,Solitude and this was one of the most enjoyable experiences I have had. Have been off slopes for 10 years and was fearful getting back to it, but for $19 night skiing (with Brighton being $108) it was excellent. Kind staff, beautiful gear, sweet lifts and mountain and not the killer expense that is the Hallmark of Utah skiing after 2002 Olympics. Why can’t any resort in Utah be less than $100 for night skiing is beyond me, but I found it. Powder Mountain was in a word EXCELLENT. Thank you for a great re-introduction to skiing. I love Powder mountain!!

As avid skiers based in Park City, we’ve explored nearly every ski resort in the area, from Deer Valley, Alta, Snowbird, Brighton, Solitude, Sundance & Snowbasin. After hearing countless great things about Powder Mountain, we decided to make the scenic hour-and-a-half drive for a midweek visit (Tuesday after MLK weekend), and we couldn’t have been more impressed. The drive to Powder Mountain was breathtakingly beautiful, and parking was a breeze. We opted for the Timberline parking area, which was conveniently mid-mountain and served as the starting point for their Complimentary Mountain Tour. Arriving early, we waited in the cozy skier services yurt, where Angela G. provided exceptional hospitality. She gave us insider tips on the mountain, local dining recommendations, and even handed out some Powder Mountain stickers. Her proactive attitude ensured that our experience started on the right note. When the tour began, our hosts, Tate and Bob, were nothing short of fantastic. Tate’s dad jokes kept the mood light, and his deep knowledge of the terrain made navigating this vast mountain much easier. He catered to our 14-year-old son’s enthusiasm for steeps and challenging runs by pointing out the best spots and explaining how to access the “secret” areas. Powder Mountain truly lives up to its name. Despite no fresh snow for a week, we discovered untouched powder and had vast areas seemingly to ourselves. The diversity of terrain was impressive with groomed greens and blues perfect for cruising, scenic bowls and rolling meadows, gorgeous aspen glades and thrilling steeps, backcountry terrain, and hike-to areas like James Peak. There’s something for everyone, making it an ideal destination whether you’re a beginner or an expert. We took a break at Timberline Lodge for lunch, and the pizza was incredible. The pulled pork banh mi was flavorful, the spicy Hawaiian had a perfect kick, and our son’s classic pepperoni didn’t disappoint. The quality of food exceeded expectations for on-mountain dining. The combination of Powder Mountain’s outstanding customer service, extensive terrain, and serene atmosphere made it one of the best ski days we’ve had. It’s hard to believe such an expansive and uncrowded resort is just a short drive from Park City. Whether you’re looking for fresh powder, diverse runs, or a friendly vibe, Powder Mountain is worth the trip. We’ll absolutely be back! Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

We came out here for night snowboarding because Brighton closed down due to the dangerous weather, and we're glad we did. Not only was Powder Mountain cheaper, but it wasn't very crowded - so we got a ton of great powder runs in. At night time they only open one lift and a few trails, but they are well lit and quite a lot of fun to shred on. The facilities are in great shape and we had no issues with parking, lift tickets, food, or restrooms during our stay.
