This resort was home to the slalom, mogul, and aerial events of the 2002 Olympic Winter Games. Skiers at Deer Valley will not be disappointed by the 3,000 vertical feet and 1,750 acres of skiable terrain. This is an amazing resort destination for skiers of all abilities.
About 15% of Deer Valley’s terrain is rated beginner. This mountain is famous for its’ smooth, groomed runs which are just right for beginners or those who merely want to cruise. Bald Eagle Mountain and Little Baldy Peak provide plenty of wide-open trails. Favorite trails for families include Navigator and Success. Instruction is available for skiers of all ages and abilities. Another nice touch for parents is the complementary pagers offered to alleviate concerns of cell phone coverage on the mountain.
