Whenever you are expecting for the ultimate Utah ski vacation ,Solitude Mountain Resort has everything that you could want or need. During the early 1900’s, the Field was loaded of silver miners, who granted the area its famous name. Today, the field is covered with skiers – but the crowds are rather light.

The field became a skier’s paradise in 1957. It was developed by Robert Barrett, who made his fortune
as a uranium miner. He basically started developing the resort because he was denied restroom privileges
at the ski area in Alta – as he was not a guest.

Now owned by a different family, the resort characteristics 1200 acres of 63 runs for beginners skiers, intermediate skiers, and experts. There are 8 lifts, including seven chair lifts and one surface lift. The top
elevation at Solitude Mountain is 10036 feet, with a vertical drop of 2048 feet.

There are five lodging options for guests, and activities and events take place all throughout the year. The resort looks like a Tom Kincaide painting, and one can’t help but wonder if this is where some of his inspiration came from!
