It is definitely on the more groomer side for the terrain they offer. Their runs are mostly open and wide, making them great option to practice carving. One drawback for me is that most technical double blacks do require some distance of hiking or long traverses.

Well groomed, warm water in rest rooms, friendly staff, good deal on adult senior season passes, havent eaten there often. When I have it was good.

Snowbasin is a super fun resort for all levels, they even have the downhill from 2002 Olympics. Lots of off-piste too. Kind of a cool playground for all levels/ages.

Well groomed and maintained. The lifts and gondolas move people across the resort so the runs arent overly crowded.

Terrain is everything you want to find from chutes to groomed perfection. The lifts give you amazing choices and experiences. World class lodges and bathrooms haha. Food choices are what you want to see. This is my new home!

Love this resort! Great snow, great terrain and a lot of fun. Close to the city but you feel forever away.

A large resort with a lot of cool areas. Some steeps, some really cool off trail stuff, but great groomers as well. Some flat spots for snowboarders to watch out for if the snow conditions are slow, but nothing too bad. The parking and shuttle situation is AMAZING and the gondolas and lifts are great.

Snowbasin is a very nice resort with runs suited at all levels.
The main issue is that they are allowing to many skiers per day on the hill. This coupled with poor parking, can really disappoint you experience. This used to be a excellent ski area with a even better value.
They could get it back, but it seems that all there are interested in is you money.
Sorry Snowbasin, but I know that the truth hurts, been skiing here for over 60 years. I have seen a lot of things come and go.

Great atmosphere. The mountain is big enough that you can get away from the crowds and ski whatever type of terrain you enjoy. Friendly, helpful, and efficient staff. Great overall experience.

I have spent 25 days at SnowBasin this year. Despite occasional never-ending traffic on the way there, once on the mountain, the lifts operate smoothly, resulting in minimal wait times. Removing the Ikon Pass would likely enhance the resort's experience.
