Summit Bald Mountain at Deer Valley
HikingModerateSummerYear-round
Take the Sterling Express chairlift up and hike the remaining trail for a 360-degree view of the Jordanelle Reservoir and the high peaks.
Itinerary tips
- 1Purchase a scenic lift ticket online in advance and head to Silver Lake Village to board the Sterling Express chairlift.
- 2Allow at least two hours for the round-trip experience to account for the chairlift ride, the summit hike, and photo time.
- 3Bring a windbreaker and sturdy hiking shoes, as the summit is significantly cooler and more exposed than the base village.
- 4Park at the Deer Valley Silver Lake lot, which typically offers free and ample space during the summer months.
- 5Download the Deer Valley trail map or a GPS app to ensure you follow the designated footpaths away from active downhill bike trails.
- 6Grab a world-famous turkey chili at Silver Lake Restaurant before or after your hike to refuel like a local.
