We'll see you on the slopes."

After receiving 10 inches of snowfall in the last week, Brian Head Resort became Utah's first resort to open the 2025-26 ski season on Friday, November 21. The resort was originally scheduled to open on November 7 and subsequently postponed season opening twice, first to November 15 and then to November 21. The delayed opening followed weeks of unusually warm weather sweeping across the southern Rockies, delaying season opening in both Utah and Colorado.
