| One of the USA's great mountain resorts, Snowbird was developed by Dick Bass, a man of means who has climbed the highest peak on each of the seven continents.
The resort is more or less wedged into Little Cottonwood Canyon, and heavily fortified against avalanches. As a result, all the accomodations are very much slopeside, including the luxurious Cliff Lodge.
The spectacular views up and down the steep canyon walls can produce vertigo, and the cost of staying at Snowbird is said to have the same effect. Not recommended for the inexperienced or budget-minded (except as a day trip), Snowbird is tailor-made for the well-to-do and ready-to-rip. Snowbird is steep, deep and none too cheap, but absolutely worth the trip.
