Begin the booking process ASAP before we're booked out. Please inquire by clicking the "Book Trip" button and submitting the form. We will respond ASAP. If you request a private room, additional fees required.
Lodging:
Our base for the week offers comfort and convenience at the foot of the Wasatch Mountains. With spacious rooms, free Wi-Fi, and a 24/7 fitness center, it’s easy to recharge after a day on the slopes. Plus, Salt Lake City’s dining and entertainment are just minutes away.
This location also provides more flexibility—when heavy snow and avalanche danger prevent access to the mountains, we can still access safer backcountry zones from Salt Lake, keeping our adventure going even in challenging conditions.
*In the event this hotel is unavailable, an equivalent option will be arranged to ensure your comfort and convenience.
Itinerary:
The ski resorts we use for lift accessed touring will be dependent on the group's equipment, i.e. if we have a splitboarder in the group, we will not tour from Alta.
- Each day your van(s) will pick you up from the hotel at approximately
08:00. You will be transported to a drop-off location to meet your guides. - You will all use the lift to begin the day, saving time and effort. From
there you will tour into the Utah backcountry, seeking untouched Utah
powder. - Depending on group skill and fitness level, you can expect 1500-4500' of ascent each day, with even more descent due to the lift bump!
- After a full day, your guide will bring you to your van(s) and your driver
will return you to your hotel.
