Snowbasin Resort is Best in the West!

Snowbasin Resort climbed from second place last year to claim the coveted number-one spot among western ski resorts in 2025.

A Great Place to Ski

With easy access, impeccable service, and great facilities—including its famously pristine bathrooms—Snowbasin has become increasingly popular among skiers. It’s now one of the most sought-after resorts in the West. Additionally, Snowbasin is in the running for USA Today’s Readers’ Choice for Top Resort and is currently ranking quite high as votes come in.

More Access, More Time on the Slopes

Snowbasin’s success stems from its commitment to enhancing the skiing experience with exceptionally well-maintained terrain, high-speed lifts, and an array of amenities that set it apart. The resort’s 13th lift, the DeMoisy Express, was installed to add capacity to the Strawberry area, bolstering the impressive infrastructure and maximizing slope time for skiers.

World-Class Appeal and a Bright Future

The appeal of Snowbasin goes far beyond the slopes. Originally expanded for the 2002 Salt Lake City Olympics, Snowbasin boasts upscale lodges and high-end facilities, offering a distinctly luxurious feel. These features, along with attentive customer service and an incredible team, create a resort experience that is as enjoyable off the mountain as it is on it.

A Local Favorite, Always

As a potential site for Alpine events in the 2034 Winter Olympics, Snowbasin is poised to see even more upgrades, cementing its place as a premier international ski destination. It continues to deliver excellent value and unforgettable experiences. Its rise to the top comes as no surprise to those of us at Visit Ogden who have enjoyed its unique blend of luxury and adventure over the years.
