Brighton - Thunder Road to Scout

Описание: Thunder Road to Scout is a ski run of varying difficulties located at Brighton Resort. The trails run from the summit of the Crest Express chairlift down to the Brighton Center base area and the bottom of the lift. The run begins to the skier's right of the top of the Crest Express on Thunder Road, which begins as an intermediate trail. The trail begins by gently traversing across the mountain before turning slightly to the left into a series of short but steep dips and gentle turns. The trail stays to the right at a large intersection, turning into a beginner trail, as it gently runs down the mountain before arriving at the bottom of the Snake Creek Express chairlift. Here, I stayed to the slight left of the lift to ski onto Scout, a narrow intermediate trail that winds its way down the mountain before reaching the Brighton Center and the bottom of the Crest Express.

Brighton Resort is a ski resort located in Brighton, Utah. The resort is located in eastern Salt Lake County, about a 40-minute drive southeast of Downtown Salt Lake City. The resort is one of two ski areas located in Little Cottonwood Canyon, the other being nearby Solitude, which is connected to Brighton via the SolBright trail, allowing skiers and riders with tickets or passes valid at both resorts to ski between both resorts. Brighton is known for its variety of terrain, especially for families, its night skiing, and its extensive terrain parks. The mountain is broken up into four main sections: Great Western features the longest and some of the steepest runs at the resort, offering amazing 360 views of the Wasatch Mountains; Snake Creek features a variety of family-friendly terrain and some expert trails; Crest features a variety of mostly groomed slopes for those of all ability levels as well as the majority of the mountain's terrain parks; and Milly, a wide-open area of the resort with a variety of trails from beginner to expert both groomed and ungroomed. The resort is owned by Boyne Resorts and is a partner on the Ikon Pass, granting full and base pass holders 7 and 5 days respectively at the resort.
