| Beaver Mountain Ski Area is located in northern Utah, and has been
family owned and operated since 1939. If you have heard boasts about
the best maintained slopes around, come and see for yourself. The northeast
exposure is ideal for morning sun. With avalanche-free conditions and very little
wind, Beaver Mountain is an all-around great place to ski. Beginners will want
to steer towards the Little Beaver and Gentle Ben runs. Intermediates will enjoy
the usually machine-packed Ridge, Stump and D-Street trails. Harry's Hollow
is designated as the "racers" run and for hot doggers. Experts will
want to checkout Robison's Run, Wipe Out, Old Thunder and Canyon View, to name
a few. Lue's Run is a newly cleared run, named after Luella Seeholzer, one of
the mountains founders. If you like fall-line skiing, this one is for you. It
is long, steep and littered with bumps.
Snowboarders are allowed on the mountain, but are restricted from a
few of the runs. PSIA-certified instructors teach skiers of all ages
and ability levels. The Snoopy Ski School, for children 5 to 8, is an all-day
class (except lunch) and runs five weeks on Saturdays or Sundays and during
the week of the Christmas holiday. Services at Beaver Mountain include an A-frame
lodge, sun deck, cafeteria, boot room, lockers, ski shop and rentals. Beaver
Mountain is located 27 miles east of Logan, Utah, in the Wasatch-Cache National
Forest. |
