In March, at least among casual skiers, a sense that the winter season is nearing its end prevails. However, across many corners of North America—including Utah—there’s still a month or more of lift-accessed skiing.

These are the planned closing dates for ski resorts across the Beehive State per Ski Utah, a nonprofit association that represents Utah’s ski and snowboard industry. As always, the weather and conditions caveat applies.

For late-season skiing, Snowbird, with a planned closing date of May 26, remains a safe bet. To partake in what might be the state’s best closing day party, visit Alta Ski Area on April 20 for Frank. 

Enjoying lift-accessed skiing beyond May will likely require an adventure further afield. Arapahoe Basin, Colorado, for one, is known to keep its lifts spinning until June (the ski area’s latest closing date on record is August 10). Timberline Lodge, Oregon, meanwhile, stays open well into the summer.

Barring a trip outside Utah, there’s always backcountry skiing. Snow tends to stick on the high-altitude flask of numerous peaks, provided you have the gumption to look for it. In short, you’ve got options. 

For now, though, it’s still March. Alta Ski Area and Snowbird just wrapped up a round of considerable snowfall, with a smaller refresh possible this coming weekend. Beyond that, warm, springlike temperatures are expected. 

However, should you find yourself skiing in a t-shirt next week, I still wouldn’t tuck away the powder boards if I were you. It’s best to remain prepared for the odd sleeper spring powder day—you never know when winter might make a reappearance.
