I have been skiing Lee Canyon for years. It is a small resort, located amongst some of the most stunning scenery in the western U.S. Snowfall can sketchy some years….to the point of being totally reliant on man made snow. For many tourists and some locals, Lee canyon is a entertaining novelty act….a bucket list activity to check off your list. For many locals, this resort has been where they, and friends and family learned to ski, snowboard, tree ski, powder ski, and take on back country ski/snowboard adventures. Try to avoid weekends and holidays….it is far less crowed during week. Also, weather and driving alerts are no joke….everyone gets excited about mountain storms that can turn the resort into a powder paradise, but if ignore driving restrictions, (chains and/or 4WD only during or after big storms. Do not attach expectations that a small resort cannot deliver, and be courteous….patience matters. I have spent many days over 34 years having a great time at Lee Canyon…I was there five times in the last two weeks, and three times this week, (2/21- 2/26). My brother flew out from Michigan this week and had two powder says out of the three days he skied Lee this week.
