Brian Head Resort is thrilled to kick off the 2025–26 ski season at 10 am this Friday, November 21, conditions permitting.

A first chair celebration will take place at the Navajo Express Lift at 10 am, featuring giveaways, hot chocolate, and donuts. The Navajo Lodge will be open with rentals, ski and snowboard lessons, and food and beverages.

The resort has received over six inches of snow in the past 48 hours, with more in the forecast. Low temperatures are allowing snowmaking crews to build a strong early-season base. Upgraded snowmaking on Navajo Mountain this season will allow more beginner and intermediate terrain to open earlier and stay open longer.
