Powder Mountain mechanics, Roger Arave and Evan Miller, designed and built the off-road vehicle so that it could climb the steep and rocky terrain that serves as ski slopes during the winter months. 42 inch tires, a full roll cage and a canvas top in case of inclement weather provide a comfortable and safe excursion for guests. Incredible views, conquering steep slopes, and seeing wildlife in their native habitat create a memorable experience.

The guided tours will take guests to spectacular sites with amazing views over the 10,000+ acres within the resort that would otherwise be inaccessible to the public by vehicle. It is a great excursion to check out fall colors in the Wasatch Mountains. Each three-hour tour will be custom tailored to meet the desires of the individual guests and to take advantage of the changing scenery, wildlife, and weather. Typical areas to be explored include Lightning Ridge, Cobabe Canyon and Three Mile Trail to Hidden Lake. The overlook into Ogden Valley from the south end of the property includes all of Ogden Valley, the Great Salt Lake, Uintah Mountains, Wyoming, Idaho and Nevada.

Reservations are required and can be made by calling Wolf Creek Adventures at 801-745-2000 or emailing adventures@wolfcreekutah.com

Powzilla Debuts At The Ogden Valley Balloon Festival

Powzilla made its debut at the 14th annual Ogden Valley Balloon Festival. Always a fun time, the balloon festival features balloon launches, arts and craft booths along with live entertainment over an entire weekend.

Powder Mountain sponsored a booth selling season passes, providing information about the resort, and of course promoting summer tours of Powder Mountain on the famed "Powzilla".
The appropriately named "Powzilla" is an off-road, 4x4 vehicle that will allow summer tours of Powder Mountain not accessible by regular vehicles. Other than the spectacular views, beautiful meadows, wildflowers, and wildlife Powder Mountain has to offer in the summer, a ride on Powzilla is just plain FUN!

Reservations are required and can be made through Wolf Creek Adventures by calling 801-745-2000 or email adventures@wolfcreekresort.com
