Under Solitude?s 500 annual inches of light, fluffy Utah powder, you?ll discover over 1,200 acres of wide-open bowls, gladed tree runs, steep chutes and perfectly groomed gentle cruising slopes that are never crowded and always ready to thrill skiers and boarders of all ages and skill levels. Far from the crowds at other resorts, 12 miles up Big Cottonwood Canyon, is a whole different world; a world where the sense of calm and peacefulness can only be described as ?solitude?. It's a place of unrivaled beauty, a place where priorities slip back into place and you're free to reconnect with nature, with your family, friends, and with yourself.
