Pros
  • Affordable for families (kids 10 and under ski free)
  • Slope connected to Solitude Mountain on the Solbright pass
  • Less crowded than nearby popular resorts
Cons
  • Small base with limited food and lodging

Overall

4

Brighton is always a reliable choice for Utah's infamous powder but without the price tag and crowds of nearby resorts. On the other hand, it's much smaller with a relatively short vertical drop. Nevertheless, Brighton is an affordable locals mountain with a laid-back vibe with a good variety of runs and park scene.

Family friendly and rad at the same time, great food and even better beer at the lodge area. They treat you like a local even though you are an out of towner

Not just a great place to shred snow… it’s a community! Brighton gets to know their guests and helps them when needed. Everyone is super friendly and has a good time. Head up to Brighton in SLC UT, it’s a party!... More
