Brian Head Resort is about 40 minutes from Cedar City and has the highest base elevation in Utah, at 9,600 feet. Set in the Dixie National Forest, it gets plenty of snow and has terrain for every level, with eight lifts and two base areas, Giant Steps and Navajo, connected by a free shuttle.
Beyond skiing and snowboarding, there is snow tubing for the whole family and night skiing on select evenings. In summer, the mountain offers lift-served mountain biking and hiking, and Cedar Breaks National Monument is right next door.
After a day on the slopes, come back to a fireplace, a private bath and a full breakfast, with dining and entertainment a short walk away in downtown Cedar City.
