Why you should go…

Robert Redford bought this ski area on the slopes of Mount Timpanogos in 1968 and named it after his role in Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid. Winter brings downhill, night and Nordic skiing, while warmer months offer scenic lift rides, a ZipTour, mountain biking, hiking and horseback riding. Beyond the slopes you will find an art studio and gallery, a spa, live music at the Owl Bar, and dinner at the Tree Room or Foundry Grill.

Good to know

General sport & outdoor guidance

Habits that pay off across this whole category, not rules for this one venue. Always check the official site for the specifics.

  • Weather calls the shots

    Check the forecast the morning of and keep an indoor backup in your pocket for the day it turns.

  • Shoes, water, sun cover

    The three things that decide whether you last the whole outing or cut it short after an hour.

  • Parking and launches fill early

    On a nice weekend, lots and trailheads are often full by mid-morning.

  • Daylight shrinks in shoulder season

    Spring and fall visits need an earlier start than the same trip in July.
