10 Things to do Good for Big Groups in Wasatch Range That You Shouldn't Miss
Stretching 160 miles through Utah, the Wasatch Range makes a rugged, glacial backdrop for the 85% of the states population living within 15 miles. Mount Nebo is highest at 11,928 feet, but the peaks around Alta and Park City are most popular. "The greatest snow on earth" falls on these spectacular slopes. Lone Peaks granite outcrops provide top climbing. Canyons and valleys are loved by fly-fishermen and hikers. After all that adventure, retire to a hip restaurant or enticing hot tub in chic Park City.

Very upscale and scenic. This is a large, multi-street, outside retail venue (think H&M and Sephora) that is especially beautiful and quaint at night due to the white twinkle lights, large fireplaces, benches, and overhead music. Many places are open late in here. Be prepared to walk a bit if you are retail shopping, unless you can find parking along the streets in front of the stores. Be sure not to miss the outstanding restaurants and eateries located deep within the retail area. The more common eateries like Panda Express and Chick Fil-A are located across the parking lot near the very popular Nordstrom Rack and Home Goods.

Mere words don't begin to describe the incredible beauty my family and I enjoyed during our visit today. From the deer to the coyotes to the snow-capped mountains to the beautiful mountain falls, my family and I highly recommend taking the Alpine Scenic Highway. It was a day to take in some of God's greatest creations.

Deer Valley is just the best place to ski in the entire world. The best staff, tissue boxes at every lift line, fast moving lift lines, tons of variety in slopes (many greens, blues, and blacks), perfectly groomed slopes, nice ski school program, and amazing food. Everything at Deer Valley is perfect! This is why I keep coming back year after year, due to the fact that it is flawless and the best mountain in the entire world. I love coming here! (*When staying here, a great place to stay is The Lodges at Deer Valley)

A beautiful park located on the largest of the Great Salt Lakes islands; features lots of white-sand beaches, hiking and biking trails in addition to a variety of flora and fauna, including deer, bob cats, and of course, antelopes.

We went to hike Antelope Island and picked the 33 Bison Roundup!Started by crossing the 7.5 mile causeway onto an amazing, serene and beautiful island.The Park Service staff greeted us with smiles and pride for their island home. At first bison grazed while cowboys and cowgals mounted their beautiful horses. Soon bison realized riders were near and started slowly but picked up speed;to a run.Huge beasts racing along the shoreline and up a ridge heading for the corral. Park employees wisely kept visitors safe and away from charging bison. After the roundup we hiked Buffalo Trail and saw sweeping views of the Grear Salt Lake.It was a memorable day and location I will never forget.Minutes from downtown Salt Lake; vast wilderness beauty.

We LOVE Beaver Mountain! We live in CA and have bought season passes for the past 10 years and ski during the Christmas holiday and then again for a week in February. We keep coming back due to the friendly staff who are willing to go the extra mile for you, the amazing snow and terrain, and the family-friendly environment that the resort creates and offers.

Took day lessons here with my wife. She took the first-time skier lessons and I took intermediate lessons. Both lessons were from 9:30-3:30 and we rented all our equipment. Pick up was quick and easy. The instructors were very good, I learned a lot, starting on green runs and working our way up to blue runs by the late morning, early afternoon. We had a break for lunch and got to see each other, but it was good having separate time to learn at our own pace. Overall a sensational day of skiing and I cannot wait to return!
10. George S. Eccles Dinosaur Park

Journey back in time to the days when the Dryosaurus roamed and the Tyrannosaurus rex ruled at this outdoor six-acre park that displays giant dinosaurs complete with sound effects like crashing trees and earth moving footsteps. The complex also includes a museum that features hands-on exhibits of the latest fossil finds from Utah and around the world.

Most amazing museum filled with Dinosaur bones, and an excellent gem room upstairs. Then you go outside and there are probably 100 Dinosaur statues. This would be a great place for kids of all ages.
