Powder Mountain

Even on the busiest day, you may only find one skier per two acres of terrain at Powder Mountain. Almost 3,000 acres is a traditional lift served resort with an abundance of groomed trails and powder runs. The remaining 5,000+ acres is nirvana for powder hounds. During the first half of the 20th century, Powder Mountain was the winter range for Frederick James Cobabe’s sheep. Now it is one of the largest ski ares in the United States. Located just east of Eden, Utah, Powder Mountain is a not-so-well-kept secret among locals and visitors alike.
