I’m coming out this season! My best friend in Washington texted. It had been nearly 10 years since we had skied together as instructors at Deer Valley Resort. Unfortunately, I couldn’t take all the credit for this spontaneous announcement. She bought a Ski Utah Passport.
Since 1998, Ski Utah has been inviting 5th graders to its slopes for next-to-nothing and Jada was finally in 5th grade. Krista wanted to show her daughter what Utah skiing was all about and what better way than with FREE skiing? Well, practically free.
For $45* and the five minutes it takes to fill out the online form, Jada could ski three times at all 15 resorts including on weekends with her little SKi Utah Passport.* That’s basically $1/ticket. And for one week, we took advantage of every day starting with Deer Valley, moving to Solitude, Canyons, Snowbird, Alta, Brighton and Snowbasin.
Her mom, a high school teacher, does her best to groom her kids to be skiers but resources are finite. With the Ski Utah Passport, it was cheaper to make the drive to Utah, stay with me and ski, than go anywhere else. Plus, let’s be honest. Where else would she have this kind of fun in March? The snow was deep, the sun high and the après in full swing. When they packed up the car for home, plans were already growing for the next year because Ski Utah also has a Sixth Grade Passport.
Sixth Graders Get In On The Ski Utah Passport Too
Whether you missed participating in the Fifth Grade Passport, Ski Utah invites Sixth Graders back to keep skiing on the cheap. This time around, however, they’ll get one day (instead of three) at 15 Utah resorts for $45*.
* (price increases December 1, 2021)
The kicker is that both Ski Utah Passports are available to any child in the world, throughout the ski season. Home schoolers can also register. Unfortunately there aren't a ton of perks offered for parents (ie Chauffeurs) this year but there are a few:
-Eagle Point: $4 discount on adult all-day rental packages
-Brighton: One Day or Twilight $60.00 buddy pass to be used in conjunction with the Passport
-Powder Mountain: 1 additional day for the passport holder
With the prices of everything involved with a ski vacation reaching maximum velocity, the Ski Utah Passport is a golden ring for ski families. I can’t tell you how often I hear that people quit skiing because it costs too much. But then I mention the Passport and their eyes light up. My kids can ski and I don’t have to forgo next month’s groceries? The Snowsports Industries of America actually report that more kids ski and keep skiing because of the Pass.
The Theory Behind The Ski Passport
The idea is simple. Winter is long, especially in Utah. One of the best ways to keep children engaged is to get them outside and moving. Studies show that kids between the ages of 10 and 12 begin to find their passion for skiing because they are ready for more complex sports. They have the motor skills and cognitive ability to explore movements and mountains.
In addition, children this age are also at a crossroads for mental and physical health. Do they sit inside playing video games and smartphone apps or do they embrace something healthier and active? Get them active now and they will be active as adults.
You Don’t Need To Live in Utah
Let’s say it again. If you are considering a winter trip and you have fifth and sixth graders in your midst, a Utah visit is a no brainer. The Fifth and Sixth Grade Ski Utah Passport pays for itself in a single day. You apply online, upload a current photo of the fifth or sixth grader and use your credit card to complete your transaction. You’ll get confirmation within 24-48 hours and can use it immediately after.
How You Know What You’ve Skied
This year’s Passport is completely digital from registration to tracking. See where you’ve gone and what resorts remain to be ridden through your online portal. Chances are you’ll have enough days left for a second vacation.
I’ll probably need to find another reason to get Krista and her family out to Utah now that Jada’s in high school but soon she’ll be in college and Krista can come by herself again.
This kind of makes me sad. You know how you look at your kids and wish they stayed little forever? College. Wow. Ski Utah gives you one more reason to wish they never grow up.

Park City and the upper Wasatch range finally have snow! Utah ski area opening dates feel late even though it’s pretty much happening right on time. We’ve rarely had enough snow for decent skiing before Thanksgiving. Early is Halloween. Normal is now. Yet, for the first time- ever- Deer Valley moved their opening day up a week. Does that mean we’ve got a lot of snow? No, not at all; this one’s a headscratcher. Feel free to offer your explanation for this in the comment section.
I took a spin today at Canyons Resort and have to report that the experience was quite typical. High Meadow (the beginner area) and two intermediate runs, Kokopelli and Snowdancer. After five runs, the manmade was getting scraped off and we called it. The good news is that the weather forecasters are calling for 10-25 inches by Wednesday which would set up Utah resorts for a white Thanksgiving weekend and the ability to open up additional terrain.
Sadly, a high pressure moves in for next weekend and possibly through the first week of December.
The moral? Don’t blow the confetti and horns just yet. Two seasons ago, those two or three early season, manmade, groomed trails, catering to thousands of hungry passholders became brown ribbons of death from exposed dirt and rocks that pretty much lasted through the Christmas holiday. Still, the ski stoke is running high in these parts now that the annual ski porn films have premiered, Park City has a white cap and most resorts have announced their “official” opening dates.
The Ski Utah Passport program for 4th, 5th, and 6th graders is on sale now for $69. The pass is in its 26th year of offering three days at each of the 15 resorts in the state but there are some big changes this season. Every kiddo, no matter if they live in Utah or Australia will get THREE days of skiing- even the 6th graders- at each resort but nine resorts will black out: Dec. 26, 2024 – Dec. 31, 2024 | Jan. 18-19, 2025 | Feb. 15-16, 2025. Six have no restrictions! Brian Head, Cherry Peak, Eagle Point, Nordic Valley, Snowbasin and Solitude Mountain Resort. For more information, check out 4th, 5th and 6th Grade Ski Utah Passport – Ski Utah.
You would think with the snowpack we’ve had this winter that we’d be skiing into July. Darn, if the snowgods didn’t hightail it the Bahamas and leave us skibums to sweat in the 60-degree heat this month while we watch the resorts close all too soon. It’s now time for Utah’s spring skiing party.
Anticipated Closing Dates
Alta : April 16 Beaver : April 2 Brian Head : April 16 Brighton: April 16 Cherry Peak : March 26 Deer Valley : April 16 Eagle Point : April 2 Nordic Valley : March 19 Park City Mountain : April 16 Powder Mountain : April 9 Snowbasin : April 16 Snowbird : TBD Solitude : April 16 Sundance : April 2
Though sad to see our powder days in the rear view, spring skiing, with its corned-up groomers, funky retro ski clothes, and tailgate parties holds a certain charm. We wear lighter clothes and carry lighter hearts even if the snow is heavier and wet. After all, spring isn’t really about epic powder anymore, it’s about the epic, all-day spring skiing party.
Each day on the hill becomes your own personal spring break so don’t sit home and let it pass you by. There is the spring skiing party and picnics, music streaming from backpack speakers, rainbow wigs and the occasional man in a Speedo with corresponding sunburn. Despite the ever-melting conditions there are still plenty of turns and hi jinks left around the Wasatch. Bring the family and the outrageous costumes. It’s time to enjoy the deals, decent weather and debauchery.
Look to the corners of the Wildcat parking lot on any given sunny afternoon from now on. Those hardcore Alta locals are grillin’ and guzzlin’ and they’re happy to share both the food and tales. One story you will tell for years to come is how you sat up at the top of High Rustler on the last day of the season, dancing and tossing snowballs, and skied to the bottom at dusk with a few hundred of your closest buds. Make sure you’re there!
Saturday, April 8 – Demo Day. Demo 2017-18 skis from dozens of manufacturers and enjoy apparel sales, music and more. Wednesday, April 12 – Beer and Bratwurst for $10 at Alf’s Restaurant. Saturday, April 15 – Alta Earth Day. Sunday, April 16 – Alta Community Enrichment Easter Egg Hunt.
The spring skiing goes off here longer than any other in the Wasatch. The March/April days flit from sunny spring bumps to white-out powder days in an instant. There are unofficial pond skims, costumed clowns, torch-faced tourists, and parking lot BBQs. Although the mountain doesn’t really have an official closing date, the big party of record is the day the Tram stops spinning (usually the first weekend in May). “Jortski” celebrates the redneck in all of us with denim shorts and red, white and blue attire, and PBRs in the parking lot.
Spring passes are on sale now if you want to take advantage of this late season ho-down. Ski 12 times between now and close (TBD) and the $579 pass has paid for itself. The second spring pass sale starts April 1st but there’s no price for it yet.
March 25-26 – Subaru Winterfest. A one-of-a-kind mountain destination and lifestyle tour where skiers and snowboarders can come together. Enjoy live music, s’mores and craft OZO coffee.

The end of season got so rowdy at Brighton that they had to split the party into two days. And with the area celebrating their 80th anniversary, the last weekend is bound to go down in the rager history books. The beach bash and snowboard jam usually takes place on Saturday but it's closing day's Dummy Downhill that locals anticipate. Around 5 p.m. locals and employees of the mountain's various departments hike up to the top of the halfpipe and send hand-crafted "sleds" with "dummies" on top careening down the slope until they crash into bits. Throngs of drunken onlookers cheer. Money and prizes go to the contraptions that travel the farthest or look the slickest. The contest starts around 5 p.m.

In the days of old, Park City threw the best party of all time- Clown Day, April 1. But resort officials and local police silenced the event when the crowd- and drinking -got too outrageous to contain. Anyone arriving in a clown costume would have their pass confiscated and be ejected from the resort. Clown Day was dead. The event eventually rose from the ashes some years ago, reincarnated as “Gaper Day” but it would never again match the status of its extinct ancestor. Dress in a one-piece or neon but leave the clown wig at home.
March 25- April 9 – Spring Gruv.

It shouldn’t be this hard to prep for winter. The leaves have turned, Warren Miller premiered, I’m wearing pants. Yet I haven’t started ski conditioning, I’m desperate for new boots, the season passes still need purchasing and Sage has outgrown her gear. If you find yourself in the same boat as me it might be time to put Saturday October 24 in the calendar.
Ski “N See’s first ever Ski Prep Day is coming to Cottonwood Heights to make sure ski and ride families are ready for winter. The ARCS store in Cottonwood Heights (1844 E Ft. Union Blvd, 84121) will be the place to be from 11:00 AM to 2:00 PM.
“Our goal is to foster a real passion for skiing and snowboarding amongst local families,” says Ski ‘N See / ARCS General Manager Ryan Larsen. “We feel providing them not just information, but advice and opinions about area programs and discounts will make it easier for more families to get involved in this exciting and healthy sport.”
The four workshops should cover all the bases and basics to help foster a real passion for safe skiing at all levels and even getting to the next level:
“Ski-nitiation” will focus on getting kids on skis for the first time; “Ski-cceleration” will be all about getting out of a rut and moving to the next level; “Ski-ditioning” discusses conditioning to help avoid injury; and “Getting Ski-quipped” involves choosing the right gear without breaking the bank. Each workshop last 30 minutes starting at noon.
Ski City will have its newly wrapped Airstream trailer right next to Ski Utah’s huge blow up Yeti, making it easy to spot the location of the Fort Union Boulevard event. Ski Utah will be on hand to sign up kids for its 5th and 6th grade Passport program where kids ski free three days or one day, respectively, free at each Utah resort for a $35 processing fee. Salt Lake County Rec Centers will have a rep there talking about their ski programs, all four Cottonwood ski resorts will be providing info on their ski and snowboard lessons for kids and adults and deals offered for Learn to Ski and Snowboard month in January, and Burton will have its Riglet Park set up, giving young ones a “ride” through a mock terrain park. “We’re really excited about the industry groups joining us for this event, it’s grown much bigger than we expected,” says Ski ‘N See / ARCS Owner Roy Ostendorf.
Arcs will also be swag central with giveaways including lift tickets, goggles, a SuperPass, free rentals, free pizza from Papa John’s and more. Ski ‘N See / ARCS will be well-stocked with ski and snowboard Season Rental packages for kids and adults.
