Solitude

The name says it all. We were at Solitude over a holiday weekend (MLK Day) and we still never waited in a lift line. On Thursday we practically had the place to ourselves.

As far as terrain goes, Solitude really has something for everyone. Plenty of challenging trees, bumps and steeps along with all levels of groomed runs. The lift layout makes it a little hard to get around, but it's not too bad.

Try the public race course if it's open -- it's a ton of fun. For $2 you get a gated start and a timed run down a basic course.

If you like Snowbird and Alta, try Solitude for much of the same skiing with fewer crowds.
