Just got the ikon pass...I always ski east coast but hoping to get to Utah one weekend. What is the best/closest mountain from SLC?

Closest are solitude, brighton, snowbird and Alta, all about 25 min from SLC. So if you want to stay in Salt Lake, those are closest. I believe Ikon Pass will serve you well at these.

Park City is 50 min away but it's a great place to stay since the town has PCMR and Canyons (both now owned by Vail so it's all one massive thing) and Deer Valley. You can be slopeside and still walk or take a short uber/lyft/free bus into main street which has a great vibe. But idk what Ikon gets you in park city.

If you want the true Utah local experience, Snowbasin about an hour north of SLC. It's phenomenal and never jammed with crowds. Never had a lift line there.

Yeah there are a variety of airport shuttles but you can also just get a lyft or uber and it's not too expensive. When you're in Utah the lyft and uber apps add an option for getting a car with a ski rack so if you bring your gear I'd say just do that

PHEV (specifically, RAV4 Prime) yay/nay?

Expected use case:
Family car
Low mileage (<10-11k / yr)
4-5 days a week expecting less 30 miles per day
Weekends 100-200 miles altogether (occasionally)
Rare road trip use (1x or 2x / yr; <300 miles one way)
Have garage (to charge at home)

Chief Concern: "Best of both worlds" in engineering can mean compromises and complications, which can mean non-resilient/unreliable. But I'm no gearhead, so not sure if I'm making massive incorrect assumptions.

Just spent a week at Revelstoke BC and that place is ridiculous! They already had 27’ of snow so far this season and it snowed every day we were there.
