Visited Arizona Snowbowl in Flagstaff beautiful ski resort with stunning mountain views. The gondola ride was scenic, but we were surprised that getting off at the top wasn’t allowed, especially given the $100 cost for two people. Still a great spot for skiing and enjoying snowy views, especially for winter sports lovers.

Snowbowl is so awesome! It is great for adults and kids. The people who work there are very helpful and understanding. I recommend that visitors prepare for a wait because of parking and also for rentals but it is worth the time it may take. Also, definitely do the lift - even if only for the view. It is so worth the cost. Don’t let a lack of experience with skiing prevent you from going. You’ll have fun regardless!

I'd heard other people tell me that they kind of had mixed feelings about this resort. But now that I've finally been, I gotta tell you, I think that they're great. Someone told me they thought it was boring there.But I'll tell you what I wasn't too bored when ski patrol had to retrieve my ski for me this afternoon and they were so nice about it too. Actually, everyone was super nice. The people that run the lifts, the people at the bar and the ski patrol people.... just literally everyone, it was a great day and I hope they get some more snow, so I can come back soon! And to add that the ski culture here was actually really cool it wasn't too catered towards children, but was still family friendly and had some wide open runs that were super fun, alongside some more challenging ones.

We hit Arizona Snowbowl on a Monday and had an absolutely fantastic experience! The conditions were surprisingly great for this early in the season—not too icy at all, which made for some really fun cruising. The mountain truly offers something for everyone, with runs that were fun for all skill levels in our group. From the beginner areas to the higher intermediate trails, the terrain was well-maintained and enjoyable. Beyond the snow, the amenities were excellent. It was never far from a clean bathroom, and the lockers were reasonably priced, which made storing our gear hassle-free. Huge shoutout to the employees, too! Every staff member we encountered was incredibly helpful and friendly, making the whole day run smoothly. If you can get here during the week, it's a stellar experience!

EPIC FUN ON SNO-GO SKI BIKES We had a blast on the Sno-Go ski bikes at Snowbowl. Judah Gascoyne was our instructor and in less than an hour we were shifting and shredding. Ski biking is easy to learn, even if you don’t ski or snowboard. We were on blues in less than 2 hours. This is monster thrill without the repetitive falls incurred while learning to ski or board. You must try it! You won’t be disappointed!! Get out there and kill it!!!

January 6, 2026 mountain 25% open decent up until about 10 and you got a little bit of slush nice slopes if you go early in the morning plenty of runs for even an advanced rider up to diamond. Beginners will be fine as well as the entry-level slopes are open and they’re doing lessons every morning. Great place always been my go to since I ever started snowboarding.

My first snowboarding experience was amazing! Had a fantastic time creating memories with my cousins and nephews. Booking online was seamless, and access to the resort was easy. Highly recommended for anyone looking to try skiing or snowboarding for the first time!
