Where is Brighton Ski Resort?
Located only 30 miles from Salt Lake City, the host of a vibrant festival scene, Brighton Ski Resort rentals are located in Big Cottonwood Canyon, a 15-mile-long watershed canyon. All of the resort's land is part of the Wasatch-Cache National Forest. Because of the resort's location, it receives plenty of snowfall from winter storms. In fact, the mountain averages 500 inches of snow each winter. Plus, the fluffy, dry snow has been ranked as the second-best snow in North America.
Activities at Brighton Ski Resort
Brighton Ski Resort has amazing backcountry access. Guests can purchase single-ride lift tickets to travel to the top of the resort to reach the backcountry access gates. Let loose (safely) and enjoy some uncharted territory as you perfect your skiing.
This fabulous ski resort has some of the most extensive night skiing in the West. Explore more than 200 illuminated acres for some nighttime fun, the light glistening off the snow and beckoning you to take advantage of its perfect texture. For night skiing, you'll also have access to three lifts and the resort's main mountain terrain park. Just because the sun goes down doesn't mean your adventure has to stop.
Brighton is recognized for its cliffs, chutes, bowls, and naturally perfect features. With its 66 runs and six lifts, the entire mountain is your skiing canvas. People just getting the hang of skiing can try their hand at the Sunshine or Main Street runs, which are for beginners. More advanced skiers can perfect their craft on the Snake Bowl or Thunder Road runs.
Brighton Ski Resort rentals offer wonderful tours with naturalists from the Cottonwood Canyons Foundation. For about 45 minutes, you'll learn about the animals and plants of the area and the history and geology of the canyon. There's no better adventure than combining fun with sightseeing.
