BRIAN HEAD, Utah – Freestyle skiers and snowboarders have a new playground at Brian Head Resort, which has unveiled its expanded Bypass Terrain Park on Giant Steps Mountain. The upgraded park features a new jump line with three jumps ranging from 20 to 30 feet, along with exciting new features like a spine transfer, two volcanoes, a quarterpipe, and a ball tap jib.
Rail riders can test their skills on a Z-rail, two double kink rails, and a waterfall rail, offering a variety of challenges and flow for all styles of riders.
For those looking to hit the park after dark, night skiing is available on Fridays and Saturdays from 4 to 9 p.m. through April 5.
