This off season we passed the huge milestone of drawing in 200 ski resorts in the USA. We thought we would take a minute and celebrate that achievement and let our fans know we are not done yet. More resorts have been added and even more are planned. We are aiming to have the most accurate and complete library of ski resort data and resulting maps for our fans to use. Growing organically takes time and lots of input from…
In working with SkiUtah (and being a member, which we love) we found they were having a hard time explaining to guests what The SkiUtah Interconnect Tour was. Where the tour went, what resorts it covered and what the terrain looked like were popular questions. What is The Interconnect Tour?

Have you ever wondered, “Where are the Gates?” Skimaps have always been missing the advanced areas of the mountain. The super special top secret areas that are bound by rope lines and only allowed access by gates. We we thought why not start indexing this valued resource? The Why Why are we doing this?

We have spent a lot of time riding chairlifts lately and we have been noticing one glaring item from our short term friends on the chair. While everyone is trying to figure out where to go next they are having navigation challenges in where they are vs where they want to be.
