The hub of winter skiing activity in Utah Valley is Sundance Resort and the surrounding American Fork Canyon area. Sundance is located on 6,000 acres of unspoiled wilderness, giving skiers access to 450 acres of famous Utah powder in the shadow of Mt. Timpanogos. Sundance skiing provides nearly 50 runs in a pristine setting that takes skiing back to its roots. Owned by Actor/Director Robert Redford, the resort has over 2100 vertical feet of terrain to satisfy even the most black diamond-hungry fiends. Skiers and Snowboarders alike have access to groomed trails and first turns in fresh powder via a high-speed quad, and several triple chair lifts.
