Brighton averages over 500” of dry, fluffy Utah snow that falls over 1,050 skiable acres and a 1,745’ vertical drop. Skiers and snowboarders can enjoy the deep powder, rip up Brighton’s top quality corduroy, hit up the half pipe and terrain park and get some turns in under the stars thanks to Brighton’s 200 acres of night skiing.
