About Snowbird
Nice to meet you.
"My underlying dream for Snowbird is the creation of a year-round resort, which respects and complements the beauty and inspiration of this natural setting—a place dedicated to increasing human understanding through the enhancement of body, mind and spirit."
- Dick Bass, Snowbird Co-Founder
Averaging more than 500 inches of annual snowfall per year, Snowbird is North America’s most accessible alpine resort destination, located just 29 miles from Salt Lake City International Airport. With the mountain’s iconic Aerial Tram providing access to 2,500 acres of legendary terrain, Snowbird is home to year-round big mountain experiences at the top of Utah.

Today Snowbird is world-renown for being a must-visit skiing and snowboarding destination in the winter and an idyllic mountain escape in the summer. But there is a deep history that helped shape this special place, beginning long before the resort as we know it existed.
