The Canyons, Utah
The Canyons is the largest single ski resort in Utah with 3,700 acres. The Flight of the Canyons gondola from the Grand Summit Hotel brings you to mid-mountain where you have eight peaks to explore. Skiing at the Canyons is as diverse as it is close to downtown Salt Lake City - just a 30-minute drive from the airport.

Terrain at The Canyons ranges from groomed cruisers on Tombstone’s  to experts-only Peak 9990, named for the summit elevation, where you can access backcountry bowls.

Peak 5 and Dream Peak to the East offer up gorgeous glades, gentle winding trails. To the west is the the Canyon’s original ski terrain, previously called Park West, with skiing in Silverado, Rendezvous and Murdock Bowl. The Super Condor quad accesses chutes like Yard Sale, groomed ridge runs with sweeping views, big bump runs or the tight twisty Canis Lupis – one of six “natural halfpipes” on the mountain that are banked, bumpy, loaded with turns and trees, offering an amusing alpine descent.

 Talisker is buying The Canyons from folded ASC, this Toronto-based real estate firm has developments in Deer Valley and owns land in Park City.
