For ski bunnies UTAH, US Keen skiers know all too well the frustration of busy ski lifts, crowded slopes and trampled snow. Eagle Point Resort in Utah is one of the only ski resorts in the world that is available for exclusive private rental, so you have all 600 skiable acres, 1,500 vertical feet, 40 runs, five lifts, a terrain park, two lodges and endless backcountry terrain all to yourself. It’s a quick flight away from New York to nearby Cedar City — jump aboard a Gulfstream IVSP and be there in under five hours. The snow in Utah is bountiful and consistent through the ski season, which runs from mid-November to April, but historically, February has had the best snowfall. The resort can accommodate up to 200 people, making it a unique destination for a milestone celebration (Eagle Point has hosted weddings in the past) or keep the fresh powder to yourself and a few close friends. The resort has an As YouWish programwhere anything and everything is possible, from fine dining to flying in a DJ for a party. From $10,000 per day for private ski slope.
