Cottonwood Canyon Road Information

Plan ahead

Winter driving can be unpredictable. Plan ahead for your Utah ski trip by getting traffic and weather information.

Check out the traffic dashboard, the UDOT Traffic Cameras in each canyon, digital signs and road weather forecasts. Need a car rental or shuttle to get to your ski lodge? Get more info about transit here.

Each resort in the Cottonwood Canyons has their own policies and parking systems, but all have digital signs at the mouth of the canyons to notify visitors of their parking lots status (limited, full, etc.). Please read these signs before driving up.
