Honest Ski Resort Reviews From a Local: Sundance Utah

[@nlnl3464]

Nailed the vibe...classy yet modest & humble, the staff is friendly and....uh, friendlier. Oh, and the food is priced reasonably, obviously prepared with care, and very very good. The website is a handful for sure but on anything you may be confused about when getting to Sundance, the staff is just incredibly helpful in clarifying.

[@BoredProgression]

Agree!

[@alextrafton1348]

Maaan your production and footage is sooooo good. Also love this new series, I think these really give another element to your channel, would love to see more series like this too!

[@BoredProgression]

Thanks Alex! Appreciate that dude. 🤙

[@BoredProgression]

Merry Christmas! Wanted to post this Friday but it's been a busy time with family. No upload tomorrow, (Christmas) but we'll be live streaming Wednesday and back to regular uploads this Friday! Hope you all have a great Holiday week! ☃🎄🫶 🫵 ✌

Greta review Dan. The vibe and lack of powder-panic you describe reminds me of how Pow-Mow used to be before the California locust-cloud discovered it.

[@BoredProgression]

Thanks. Wow what an analogy. Lol

[@SteveThompson-li2fc]

I jest. But the culture has changed.@@BoredProgression

[@tylermcbride5028]

I love the vibe at Sundance as well. For those of us in Utah County, it’s super nice to have an option so close. I’m just getting into skiing and will be using their s-card this season. Great way to save money on lift tickets if you’re only going a few times.

[@BoredProgression]

Definitely a good value/option!

[@jasonevangelista7840]

The Sundance review….Excellent! Adding in The history aspect in your reviews is a great format to learn more about the resort!

[@BoredProgression]

Stoked you’re digging it! With Robert Redford’s stamp on it we had to dive deeper into the history. 🤙

[@connorrivers3088]

I work at Bear Claw Cabin (at the top of Reds Summit), we are only open 4 hours each day (usually 11-3). Come visit. It’s a dope place to catch your breath and eat nachos.

[@BoredProgression]

Thanks for the info!

[@johngjacobi]

Mmmmmm nachos :)

[@kyleschmitz6592]

Great review! Didn’t know Sundance has night riding, going to have to check that out!

[@BoredProgression]

Thanks! Yeah, it’s pretty affordable too!

[@unofficialnet]

Nice review!

[@BoredProgression]

Thanks! More resorts coming this season.

[@ShaunEk1]

This is a great review! Matches my experience. I lived in Provo for a bit and Sundance has a special place in my heart.

[@jgg0207]

This is where I learned to ski. I haven’t been in several years, great place to learn, just wish they got more snow 🫠

[@BoredProgression]

Rad! Yeah, me too.

[@triceranaps]

This is where I learned to ski and snowboard in the 90’s. Crazy how expensive it’s gotten for how small it is and how wet that front mountain gets. Getting back to the base after a day on the back mountain is like driving with the e-brake on.

[@BoredProgression]

The size and it's location are definitely keeping it from a higher score, unfortunately. But prices have gone up everywhere and compared to other resorts it's more reasonable, IMO.

[@powrunnr]

Fair review. It’s a special place and I’m grateful we have it so close to Utah County to enjoy. Season passes have skyrocketed compared to the length of season and amenities, and they’re innovation-less by the “this is how we’ve always done it” tradition. But I have to admit, the snow quality on the back mountain is BETTER than the Cottonwoods. Trust me on this one. When they get hit with the right storm, the riding is top notch. It’s a shame they’re situated so low on the mountain and in altitude in general. I love the staff and food. It feels like home when I’m there.

[@BoredProgression]

Better than CWs? That’s a bold claim. 😮

[@jgg0207]

Merry Christmas Dan!! Hope you have a good one man!!

[@BoredProgression]

Thanks my friend! You too!

[@polylove77]

That cabin used to serve beer up there

[@robertbaker1808]

Temp is the second highest in the Wasach not Utah

[@BoredProgression]

You’re right! My bad. It was late, filming this one. 🤦‍♂️

[@paulagalbo7492]

Top of Bear Claw has great food! Try the nachos and beer on tap next time. Definitely not just a storage shack.

[@BoredProgression]

I feel like I’ve just been unlucky. Lol. Each time I’m there it’s closed. Will have to try again! Thanks

[@ynot0714]

Enjoyed a beer there 2 weeks ago on Mar 21, enjoyed skiing Sundance for the 1st time ⛷️⛷️

[@Bluesky1ification]

Have you done a review on Taos Ski Valley, in New Mexico?

[@BoredProgression]

I have not. But if I get out there I definitely will asap!

[@TTF475]

please do snowbird

[@BoredProgression]

It’s coming this season!

[@localgemskier9410]

Sundance looks like a nice locals spot that doesn’t get crowded like the other mega resorts

[@BoredProgression]

Definitely. It's a lot of fun packed into a "smaller" resort.

[@bhi12455]

what is that 1 resort that’s less crowded than Sundance?

[@BoredProgression]

It used to be PowMow. But debatable now.

[@brnxbmr]

Love Sundance. Timp isn't even in the top 5 highest peaks in Utah though...

[@spencerolson3425]

It’s the second tallest in the wasatch range, which is probably what he meant

[@BoredProgression]

Yes, my bad! 2nd tallest in the satch!

[@stefangonzo]

Sundance is a good place to stay out and learn

[@BoredProgression]

Definitely

[@cmfo801]

Not the second tallest peak just saying

[@BoredProgression]

Yeah, I meant to say in the Wasatch. My bad.

[@greysonharris2759]

Review pow mow

[@BoredProgression]

It’s coming. 👍

[@SteveThompson-li2fc]

Shhhh😜🤫 don’t talk about Pow-Mow!

[@football-h2t]

sunnyd is the shi

[@JonatanSanchezEstevez]

omg yes! that's stupid website

[@BoredProgression]

Haha

[@johngjacobi]

Nachos @ the cabin rock. Sundance is the worst. I promise, you won’t like it. Please stay away :)

[@BoredProgression]

Haha. Thanks for the tip!

[@CharlesAnderson-r2s]

Robert who?? Redford is forgotten. They need new celebs.

[@BoredProgression]
