Week 9 of series on Utah's signature ski runs.

Signature and No. 1 Run

Bishop's Bowl

As might be expected at some resorts, consensus is that the run most identified with the resort, or its signature run, is also the resort's most popular run. Bishop's Bowl is rated as an advanced intermediate to expert run, which means it has appeal to a wide range of skiers and snowboarders. The run is accessed by a hard left turn off the Arrowhead lift. Among the reasons given for its popularity is that from the top it offers excellent views of Deer Creek Reservoir and the Heber Valley, not to mention an up-close view of the backside of Mount Timpanogos, which is the resort's natural backdrop. From there, skiers and snowboarders drop into the top of the bowl and into some of the best wide-open terrain around.
