An incredible 2 days of skiing this 2021 spring break! Traveled up to Brian Head from Albuquerque Nm, to check out some Utah snow. The conditions couldn’t have been better as my wife, two boys and I enjoyed the best powder of our season! This place is just stunning with beauty in the surrounding mountains and snow flocked trees. Really enjoyed the tree skiing in knee deep fresh powder! All the staff were great and the lodge was a nice place to warm up. Thank you for the fun Brian Head!

I get how is is peak period but only had 2 lifts open. Paid $97 for a full day. Which it was so packed because of covid regulations there where lines that took 20-25 minutes to get on lift. They need to changed that because take like 4ish minutes to get down and waiting again. Ask not for refund but switch barely to a half day but they said no refund. Basically want fun went down 4 times and left. I was waiting in line most of the time

Brian Head is a very family friendly ski resort. The 3 day training offer was a really good deal which also resulted in a free season pass at the end of the third day. Amazing Value. The best part was that there were almost no lines. The ski lifts moved quickly and you can get in some decent skiing/snowboarding. The snow is amazing. The quad express lift was decent

Perfect Little Hill

This resort is where I learned to snowboard and is where my nine year old son is learning, so the resort is perfect for families and anyone just starting out. As the main review states, the best attribute about Brian Head is how uncrowded the mountain can be at times. You literally can be the only one on the hill at many times throughout the season. Include the extremely cheap prices and you can really splurge and still have cash in the wallet.

The Cons listed in the review are valid. Dining and Nightlife options are extremely dull; however, Cedar Breaks Lodge does provide some decent lodging and dining options with a bar included. Besides that do not expect much more.

This resort gets a dump of snow every year, because of the altitude.

Less crowded, less expensive compared to California resorts

Dry Desert Snow

13/07/2015
We enjoyed skiing at Brian Head. We didn’t have particularly high expectations for the resort as being an ideal destination for powder hounds, but it seemed bigger than the stats would suggest. Snow quantity was lacking somewhat and some little Xmas trees were popping through, but the snow quality was superb. It hadn’t snowed in a while but the snow was very chalky and exceptional considering it wasn’t completely fresh.

Brian Head has a lot of natural beauty and it’s definitely more optically pleasing than what you’ll find at the Park City resorts. The views of the majestic red rock formations were great.
