Brighton

What began with one rope tow in 1936, Brighton, Utah has now become a top mountain resort offering a wide variety of terrain covered by an incredible amount of snow, all at a surprisingly affordable rate.

If Brighton is known for anything, it is deep powder - over 500 inches on average every season. There are plenty of fresh tracks to be had and so much snow requires meticulous grooming. As a result, Brighton features some of the best corduroy in the state.

Boasting 21% beginner, 40% intermediate, and 39% advanced runs, Brighton provides a unique skiing or snowboarding experience for everyone in the family. Most lifts access all types of terrain making it easy for families to ride the lift together and still meet at the bottom. For more adventurous expert skiers and snowboarders, Brighton's lifts, via our open boundary policy, provide virtually unlimited access to some of the best back-country in Utah.
