Experience Utah’s Winter Wonderland Partner Website

With a pantheon of red rocks dusted in white, snowy craggy peaks rising in the distance, and a pair of Clydesdales slicing through a blanket of powder, beauty fills the breathtaking wintry landscape of Heber City’s Red Ledges. By Ann Wycoff

1The mountain community of Red Ledges is a 2000-acre natural playground with stylish mountain contemporary homes and endless recreation. By summer, there is top-notch golfing, tennis, hiking, riding, swimming, trout fishing, chuck wagon rides, and more, but when winter descends and champagne powder covers those crimson rocks, the joy of Utah—one of the country’s greatest destinations for skiing and alpine play—unfolds.

Set in the quaint town of Heber City, where time seems to slow a bit and friendliness is a natural inclination, the family-oriented community of Red Ledges sits an easy 15 minutes from Park City where three world-class ski resorts await. Park City Mountain Resort boasts a famous snowboarder and freestyle-skier terrain park; families flock to Canyons Resort for its diverse trails and playful ambiance; while Deer Valley Resort ranks as the top ski destination year after year, known for its grooming perfection, gourmet cuisine, and European-style ambiance. Another nine superb ski resorts lie within a 60-minute radius of Red Ledges, explaining Utah’s reputation as the country’s finest ski destination.

For those partial to luxury skiing in the “Greatest Snow on Earth,” members of Red Ledges have VIP access to Deer Valley Ski Resort at the slope side Deer Crest Club. Skiers can make the Deer Crest Club their swanky private basecamp, where ski valets, lockers, a private bar, sprawling sundeck, and delicious gourmet food tip the opulence scale of this alpine adventure.

Back on property, a world of wintry activities bond families and creates memories of snow-filled fun. Red Ledge’s equestrian program runs 365 days a year for myriad horseback adventures and family sleigh rides led by Butch and Sundance, the resident Clydesdales.
