Mary McConnell Review of Snowbasin Ski Resort
Gorgeous views and great selection of runs. The go...
Gorgeous views and great selection of runs. The gondola ride was perfect to kick off the day. The shuttle bus from the parking lot was timely and quick, and the passenger cart (open air) back was perfect for how quickly we just wanted to be back at our car stripping off the gear.
The gift shop and apparel selection was impressive, prices were reasonable, and the space wasn't too crammed (like ski shops sometimes are).
The only downer was the inability of the staff to let us pay and get our rental gear more than 15 minutes early. So on a half day pass ($109), we lost about 30 minutes of ski time (that's 14%) in the rental area getting fitted and waiting for skis/boots.
Also, a full day (9-4) is $139, so I feel like half day (only 3.5 hours) should be closer to half price...maybe $80? the snow was pretty beat up by that time of day so it makes sense that less than half day = closer to actually half price).
Rental gear was good, my bindings didn't release on a pretty hard wipe out once, but did the next time.
Cafeteria had plenty of gluten free, dairy free options. so great!
