Dont let anybody tell you that if you go to Brighton - then you must be a snowboarder.Its simply not true. It is a great resort that has skiing and snowboardingI. The conditions are tied for best in USA with Alta. Alta gets a few more inches. Also perfect place for beginners & families because 0 ice, 0 windswept nonsense the sharp edges can barely hold does not exist here. Skiers and riders are genuinely friendly. This place is not all about glamour, fine dining, valet and luxury.
The tree skiing is best I know of anywhere! The steeps are steep. If you like moguls - the runs are long, not the longest, but treacherous. You will be humbled! Also, I appreciate that there is night skiing for a reasonable price.
