This year's 2024-25 ski resort rankings have been released, and we are super thrilled to announce that we've been voted as the No. 1 ski resort in America across three of the most industry-renowned media outlets. Across SKI Magazine's Top 50 Resorts in the U.S. and Top 30 Ski Resorts in the West, USA TODAY 10Best Ski Resorts in the U.S. and Canada, and Outside Magazine's Top 50 Ski Resorts in the U.S. and Canada rankings, we've been selected as America's No. 1 ski resort.
Every year Outside Magazine and SKI Magazine release an annual ski resort guide that is based on the results of their Readers' Resort Survey. The annual guide consists of 15 categories that evaluate the guest experience at each resort. These categories include lifts, parking, access, value, grooming, guest services, snow quality, dining, local flavor, safety, and more. This year, we ranked in the top 10 in 12 of these categories, resulting in our No. 1 ranking.
The USA TODAY 10Best Rankings are a little different. USA TODAY has a panel of experts and 10Best editors that hand-pick ski resorts from across the United States and Canada, based on the best snowfall, varied terrain, lift access, and more, before being voted on by the public. Following a top 20 resort bid from a panel of experts and USA TODAY 10Best editors, we were voted the No. 1 ski resort across the U.S. and Canada by the people.
This win directly followed our recent designation as No. 1 resort in the West in SKI Magazine's Readers' Resort Guide.
