Snowbird
- Snowbird will offer a variety of ways to park and enjoy the mountain, including the ability to park in free lots on a first-come, first-served basis, pay for reserved daily parking in advance or purchase a Preferred Parking Pass (sold out for the 2023-24 season). This hybrid approach allows the majority of parking areas be accessible for free, while Snowbird guests who enjoy the security of having a spot in advance can continue to do so.
