Brian Head, Utah’s highest town, has an alpine subarctic climate. The town was once called Monument Peak and it was the home of the Fremont people. Its two mountain peaks, Navajo and Giant Steps, boast hundreds of acres of ski slopes and are connected by a bridge. While Navajo Mountain’s slopes are mostly for children and beginners, the runs on Giant Steps Mountain are for intermediate and advanced skiers. These slopes are within Brian Head Resort, a complete and family-friendly facility. The resort, which started with only one chairlift in the mid-1960s, is now the center of activity and tourism. Plan skiing, ATV, and hiking expeditions, and check out the Vacasa rentals in Brian Head, Utah, listed below, for warm and cozy stays.
