The Cancer Wellness House is a non-profit organization providing free resources to anyone whose life has been affected by cancer.

The pancake breakfast is $3 per person. There will also be a raffle, with all proceeds going to the Cancer Wellness House. To access the pancake breakfast and Hidden Peak hike take Little Cottonwood Road to Snowbird's Entry 2.
