Street Scene from Vail Resort

Vail Skiing and Snowboarding

A huge 5289 acres of terrain is available at Vail, with something for everyone. Even absolute beginners are well catered for at Gopher Hill and at the top of the Eagle Bahn Gondola. The area really comes into its own, however, for intermediates upwards, especially if you follow the corduroy by picking up the day’s grooming map each morning. Our favorite runs lie in Game Creek Bowl, around the Northwoods Express and over the back of the mountain down to the Orient Express.

Vail’s ski area comes alive on a powder day, especially when a Rocky Mountain snowstorm loads the Back Bowls with fresh snow – just be sure to get there as early as possible to score fresh tracks. Blue Sky Basin is one vast playground filled with tree runs and gladed terrain, some of which is seriously steep; and it is here where you’ll find the best powder stashes long after fresh snowfall.

About Snowbasin:  Established in 1940, Snowbasin is one of the oldest continually operating ski areas in North America.  Snowbasin underwent a world-class transformation as the host of the 2002 Salt Lake Winter Games downhill events, adding expanded terrain with the most advanced lift system in Utah.  Top rated by Ski Magazine in the categories of service, on-mountain food, lifts and grooming, Snowbasin is an easy drive from Ogden.  With 3,000 skiable acres and 3,000 vertical feet, this resort is best known for uncrowded slopes, wide-open bowls, manicured groomers, glades, powder stashes, steep chutes and stunning views.

Historic 25^th Street:  One street over from our lodging is historic 25^th Street. During the early 20th century, 25th Street was a center of activity in Ogden. Home to retail shops, restaurants, ice cream  parlors, hotels, and laundries, the street was also a common site for illicit activities such as gambling, prostitution and narcotic sales.  Al Capone is rumored to have said that Ogden was too wild a town for him!

Historic 25^th Street today:  features restaurants, bistros, art galleries, retail shops, and hosts outdoor community events. The rebuilt Union Rail Station houses the Utah State Railroad Museums, the John M. Browning Arms Museum, and the Browning-Kimball Classic Car Museum. The street has become a tourist attraction for Ogden visitors wanting to explore the history of the western United States.
