Fly into Salt Lake City International Airport and take I-80 east through Parleys Canyon. Most of the drive is freeway. A rental car or a private shuttle both work, and a car makes groceries and day trips easier.
Winter
Ski season usually runs from late November into April. Holiday weeks and Presidents Day book first. Bring or rent a vehicle with all wheel drive and good tires, especially if you are staying up the hill.
Summer
June through September is hiking and biking season, with warm days and cool nights. The Utah Olympic Park, golf and the lakes and reservoirs nearby fill out the week.
