on the mountain – safety starts with you!For a safe skiing or riding experience, please review mountain and weather conditions before you hit the slopes.
• The various difficulty ratings on this map are relative to the Snowbird area and cannot be compared to other ski areas. Start with green runs first. During periods of low visibility or other inclement weather and snow conditions, the degree of difficulty of the ski runs may change. Check with Ski Patrol or any mountain employee for current conditions. It is critical that you know, understand and obey Your Responsibility Code as listed on the other side of this trail map.
• Obey all “SLOW SKIING” signs. All blue and green runs at Snowbird are slow skiing areas. Fast or reckless skiing and snowboarding are not permitted at Snowbird. Skiing or snowboarding irresponsibly will result in loss of skiing and snowboarding privileges without compensation.
• Obey all “CLOSED–AVALANCHE DANGER” and “CLOSED AREA” signs. It is unlawful for any person to enter any area designated as closed or unsafe; violators will be prosecuted. Enter avalanche control areas through open gates only. After passing through an open gate, HIKING ABOVE THE GLIDING TRAVERSE IS NOT PERMITTED.
• Areas beyond the ski area boundary are not patrolled or maintained, and Snowbird assumes no responsibility for the safety and welfare of skiers going beyond the boundary.
• RISK OF AVALANCHE WARNING: Avalanche hazard mitigation measures within the ski area boundaries help reduce the risk of avalanches but cannot eliminate the possibility of an avalanche occurring in avalanche prone areas and run-out zones open for skiing.

(a) Changing weather conditions, avalanches, and snow immersions;
(b) Snow or ice conditions, as they exist or may change including but not limited to, avalanches, hard pack, ice, powder, packed powder, wind pack, corn, crust, slush, cut-up snow, or machine-made snow;
(c) Surface or subsurface conditions such as bare spots, forest growth, rocks, stumps, streambeds, cliffs, trees, tree wells, and other natural objects;
(d) Variations or steepness in terrain, whether natural or as a result of slope design, snow making or grooming operations, and other terrain modifications such as terrain parks, and terrain features such as jumps, rails, fun boxes, and all other constructed and natural features such as half pipes, quarter pipes, or freestyle-bump terrain;
(e) Impact with lift towers, snowmobiles, snow vehicles, and/or other structures and their components, such as signs, posts, fences or enclosures, hydrants, or water pipes;
(f) Collisions with other skiers;
(g) Participation in, or practicing or training for, competitions or special events;
(h) Failure of a skier to ski within the skiers own ability. Sec. 78B-4-401 UTAH CODE ANN.

Skiing can be enjoyed in many ways. At ski areas, you may be joined by people using alpine, snowboard, telemark, cross country or other specialized ski equipment, such as that used by disabled or other skiers. Regardless of how you decide to enjoy the slopes, always show courtesy to others and be aware that there are elements of risk in skiing that common sense and personal awareness can help reduce. Observe the code listed below and share with other skiers the responsibility for a great snowsports experience.
1. Always ski in control, and be able to stop or avoid other skiers or objects.
2. People ahead of you have the right of way. It is your responsibility to avoid them.
3. You must not stop where you obstruct a trail or are not visible from above.
4. Whenever starting downhill or merging into a trail, look uphill and yield to others.
5. Always use devices to help prevent runaway equipment.
6. Observe all posted signs and warnings. Keep off closed trails and out of closed areas.
7. Prior to using any lift, you must have the knowledge and ability to load, ride and unload safely. If you have any questions or need special assistance, notify the lift operator before entering the loading area.
