Sundance Mountain Resort is nestled into the
dramatic folds of Utah’s Wasatch Range, an hour south of Salt Lake City
International Airport, 45 minutes south of Park City and Deer Valley, and just
20 minutes from Provo Regional Airport. With a wide collection of recent
upgrades—including new chairlifts, expanded ski terrain, building renovations,
and the newly opened 63-room boutique luxury Inn—Sundance Resort is entering an
exciting new chapter, and you don't want to miss it.New for the 2026/27 winter season, Sundance
Resort is adding the Electric Horseman high-speed quad to its lift portfolio,
along with an additional 68 acres of new terrain featuring the signature
Storyteller run—a 1.65-mile ridgeline descent with 1,850 feet of vertical drop
and some of the most panoramic views in Utah skiing. Another 100+ acres of
advanced terrain will debut for the 2027/28 season. Electric Horseman will
provide direct access to the entire Back Mountain in just a six-minute lift
ride, allowing guests to travel from the parking lot to the summit in under 15
minutes.With these expansions, Sundance Resort will
offer 10 lifts and, upon completion, nearly 700 acres of skiing, all accessible
with just two high-speed quads. The result is more terrain, more skiing, and
less waiting.Sundance Mountain Resort offers a
well-balanced mix of terrain for every ability level. The summit rises to 8,250
feet, while the base sits at 6,100 feet, delivering 2,150 feet of vertical and
sweeping views across Utah Valley and the Wasatch Back. The resort receives an
average of 265 inches of snowfall annually, complemented by an expanded
snowmaking system that provides reliable coverage throughout the season. Four
terrain parks offer progressive features for every style of rider, from rails
and boxes to jumps and flow features.Beyond the slopes, Sundance Resort offers a
mountain experience that extends well beyond skiing. Guests can stay in the
newly opened boutique Inn or choose from a collection of charming Cottages and
Mountain Homes. Dining is an essential part of the Sundance experience, with
options ranging from hearty breakfasts and fireside lunches at Foundry Grill to
award-winning fine dining at The Tree Room, casual bites at The Deli,
handcrafted cocktails and live music at The Owl Bar, and cozy après gatherings
throughout the village. Combined with an award-winning Spa, The Art Studio,
boutique shopping, concerts, film screenings, and year-round cultural
programming, Sundance offers a destination where guests can slow down,
reconnect, and linger long after the lifts stop spinning.Whether you're visiting for the day or
staying for a long weekend, Sundance Resort's two base areas make navigating
the mountain simple and convenient.For day visitors, Mountain Camp Day Lodge
serves as the primary hub. Located adjacent to Jake's Lift, Mountain Camp
offers ample parking, ticketing, rentals, a café, and comfortable indoor space
to warm up between runs. Throughout the winter, Mountain Camp also hosts rail
jams and community events, bringing a lively atmosphere to the base area.The Village Base Area provides direct access
to Outlaw Express, the high-speed quad serving Mandan Summit and Back Mountain.
It also serves as the heart of the resort, where guests can enjoy everything
from grab-and-go meals at The Deli to breakfast, lunch, and dinner at Foundry
Grill, elevated fine dining at The Tree Room, and après cocktails accompanied
by live music at The Owl Bar. The Village is also home to the Inn at Sundance
Mountain Resort, along with a collection of Cottages and Mountain Homes that
accommodate everyone from couples seeking a cozy retreat to families and groups
of up to 12 guests.
What truly sets Sundance Resort apart is its
rare combination of uncrowded skiing, exceptional dining, inspiring arts and
culture, and authentic mountain hospitality. Wooded trails, scenic ridgelines,
and thoughtfully designed spaces create an experience that feels intimate
rather than overwhelming. Whether you're carving fresh corduroy, sharing a
memorable meal, relaxing by the fire after après, or simply taking in the views
beneath Mount Timpanogos, Sundance offers a mountain experience that is both rejuvenating
and distinctly its own.
