Snowbasin Resort is pleased to welcome guests back for safe summer fun in the mountains on Saturdays and Sundays, beginning June 27th. With enhanced safety measures in place, Snowbasin will offer scenic gondola rides, lift-served mountain biking and hiking, mini golf, yoga, shopping and outdoor food service at Needles Lodge.
General Manager Davy Ratchford explains, “We’re excited to welcome guests to Snowbasin this Summer. While our mountain is great for anyone looking for scenic weekend recreation, guests should expect enhanced safety measures while visiting the resort. There is plenty of room to enjoy this fabulous outdoor environment for the many who have been clamoring to visit Snowbasin; we will continue summer operations so long as we can do so in a safe and responsible manner.”
Snowbasin’s summer operations will include the following:
- Needles Gondola Service: For scenic rides, hiking or mountain biking, Needles Gondola will operate on Saturdays and Sundays from 9:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. with enhanced sanitation in place.

The guest experience and offerings will be monitored closely during operations. A closing date has not yet been determined and will be based on demand. The Blues, Brews and BBQ concert series, Movies on the Mountain and Mountain-Top Brunch will be canceled until further notice. Snowbasin is still evaluating the Mt. Ogden Mid-Week Mountain Bike Series with the possibility of an abbreviated season later this summer. Information on other planned events, such as the popular SnowWiesn Oktoberfest, will follow as further guidance on group gathering becomes available.
Snowbasin is committed to maintaining operations responsibly and has developed safety policies in response to COVID-19, based on guidance from the CDC, Weber/Morgan Health Departments and the State of Utah. Adjustments to operations may occur based on guidance from governmental authorities.
