Brighton is a good family friendly resort. Overall, it leans on the beginner/intermediate terrain. While its advanced and expert terrain is good, its quite limited and can be overcrowded. A large drawback to the resort is its new parking reservations requirement, making skiing unavailable for some. Customer experience isnt the best. I had trouble purchasing tickets and when I called to inquire, the lady on the phone explained it was an unfixed glitch in their website and wasnt very friendly in general. Lift attendants dont pay the most attentionI saw a person fall while unloading at the top of a lift and the lift attendant didnt see it until the next chair was close to approaching. Terrain parks are great, but natural features arent my favorite; they often have very flat landings, as the whole resort isnt very steep compared to other Wasatch resorts in Utah. Lastly, Brighton consistently posts photos and videos of backcountry terrain near the resort on social media. These photos and videos do not contain disclaimers that the locations are out of bounds, causing people to believe its part of the resort. It doesnt help that these videos are always enticing too. I find it strange that Brighton does this when no other resort does this. At the very least Brighton should add a disclaimer stating the locations these pictures and videos were taken are out of bounds.
