Our Ski Specialist Says:

Deer Valley defines elegance when it comes to ski resort style. One of the most exclusive, top-rated and well-known resorts in North America, the slopes and services at Deer Valley certainly live up to their reputation. Deer Valley is known for pampering its guests – from tissues at the lifts and heated walkways, to the mountain's perfectly manicured slopes and gourmet dinning, the resort spares no expense in terms of service. Deer Valley is for skiers only, giving the upscale resort a one-of-a-kind, exclusive, but not snobby, feel. Luxurious condos and plush hotels are clustered around the ski area, and there is always nearby Park City for a taste of culture, lodging and action.

Deer Valley resort is made up of four mountains and one canyon, with Bald Eagle at 8,400 feet and Empire Canyon at 9,570 feet. Deer Valley is known for its manicured and well-groomed slopes. As such, there are plenty of long, smooth cruising runs. Experts will enjoy the steep trails on top of Empire Canyon with aspen and evergreen glades and plenty of tree skiing. The chutes and bowls off Empire Canyon will also please, and there is more advanced terrain off the Sultan and Mayflower chairs – with plenty of bumps. The Empire Express gives skiers access to 500 acres of eight chutes and three bowls. Plenty of moguls, bumps, cruising and glades characterize expert terrain. Half of Deer Valley's terrain is considered intermediate –and for some of the best runs, head to Sunset, Birdseye, and Success. Success is a long run that is also great for beginners. There is a separate area for beginners on Bald Eagle Mountain referred to as Wide West. Tricks 'N' Turns (TNT) is a skiers-only terrain park in the Empire Canyon area and is focused on intermediate level skiers. It includs fun boxes, double barrels, single rails and some small jumps.
