Top Winter Activities Spots in Utah

My advice is to pack snacks and drinks in your backpack. Food options on the mountain can be pricey and not super great. Trust me, you'll appreciate the granola bars around noon!

I think you'll love the morning runs. Try to hit the slopes by 8:30 AM to avoid the crowds. I missed out on those pristine conditions on my first day because I slept in!

Don't be afraid to explore the lesser-known trails! I stumbled upon a couple of hidden gems that were less crowded and just as fun. Just grab a map at the lodge so you don’t get lost!

Check out the Deer Valley app to find the best dining spots and shortest lift lines. I used it a ton and it saved me from getting lost!

Look for weekday passes if you can swing it. I went on a Tuesday and the slopes were way less crowded compared to the weekend. More time to enjoy the runs!

Definitely try the chocolate chip cookies at the St. Regis. I heard they were good, but they were actually amazing! Just be prepared to pay a bit for them, though.
