When in the Ogden Valley, you would never guess that a vibrant city is so close and that Salt Lake City International Airport is within an hour’s drive, with hundreds of non-stop flights. 

Powder Mountain is consistently ranked in the top 3 resorts in the nation by SKI Magazine’s readers for snow and value, while Snowbasin Resort maintains its top rankings for on-mountain food, lifts and service.  There's also Wolf Creek Utah Ski Resort which is low-key, affordable and a great place to learn to ski or board. Ogden Valley includes three townships, Huntsville, Eden and Liberty. Eden is the host each August to the Ogden Valley Balloon Festival and Wolf Creek Utah’s Music in the Mountains summer concert series including the Utah Symphony. Snowbasin Resort is open for summer concerts, mountain biking, hiking and dining and hosts two XTERRA events annually, where the country’s gnarliest and most talented triathletes and snowsports athletes compete for major prizes. It is truly endless what you can do here. World class skiing and riding are just a start.

All this recreation is offered with our moderate, mountain desert climate with over 280 days a year of brilliant, bluebird days and virtually no humidity (except when we’re getting dumped on by our annual 400+ inches of powder.)

Ogden City and Ogden Valley are divided by the Wasatch Mountains in the foothills of the Rocky Mountains. Both are readily accessible to one another by a Scenic Byway which snakes through magnificent Ogden Canyon, perhaps the most picturesque drive in all of Utah. Either direction, it’s a quick 20 minute drive.  Ogden Valley is an unspoiled, rural area that has little development and commercial zoning and retains the charm that has gone by the wayside in so many mountain communities.  All the urban amenities are just 20 minutes away. The City and the Valley are completely opposite of each other, yet remain connected in terms of amenity sharing – the city has the hustle & bustle, its authentic funky vibe with lots of great shopping & dining, and the Ogden Valley has endless recreational offerings and unsurpassed beauty. The connection is perfect – 20 minutes of separation, yet many degrees of difference.
