Utah undoubtedly has some of the "greatest snow on earth" for incredible winter outings. Most of the action takes place at the commercial resorts, from the world famous Wasatch front resorts to the lesser known but excellent southern Utah ski areas. But Utah has some unparalleled backcountry as well, with solitude and luxurious powder waiting for those hardy souls who don't mind packing their ski gear uphill and taking precautions for avalanches.
One of Utah's better backcountry skiing areas. Especially good for beginner or intermediate cross-country skiers. Always seems to have great powder snow for tele turns.
Tibble Fork is a popular winter recreation take-off point. It offers some good areas for both beginner and intermediate level cross-country skiers, as well as advanced backcountry powder slopes. And family sledding near the parking area.
