Snowbowl has become a whole new mountain over the last 3 years. With new lifts, lines are much shorter and less common. The snowmaking capability has made the snow much more consistent. If you can catch a snowy or bluebird day here, you'll have a blast!! The food could use improvement, but a packed lunch can fix that. Wind can shut down lifts which can make lines longer, so watch the forecast and check Snowbowl's website to see which lifts are operating the day before you go. I generally get a season pass here, and the mountain collective pass, with which I visit 3-4 other resorts every year. Every year, Snowbowl surprises me by being one of my top days of the season. If you can ride trees, and like to explore, Snowbowl is hard to beat if you're traveling from Phoenix.

I just wish they would build a lift to access the upper bowl!!
