Huntsville, Ogden Valley
Nordic Valley
A small, friendly hill on the Ogden Valley side of the mountains with low prices and night skiing. It is a good first mountain for kids and new skiers.
Nordic Valley has been teaching northern Utah to ski since the late 1960s. It is compact, with mostly green and blue runs, a few steeper lines off the top and lights for night skiing, so families can ski after school or work. It shares the Power Pass with Brian Head and several Southwest resorts.
The views across Pineview Reservoir and the Ogden Valley are lovely at sunset, and the small lodge keeps the scene relaxed. It is about 25 minutes from downtown Ogden and next door to Powder Mountain and Snowbasin.
