Customer service was horrible but resort wasn’t awesome!

Ryan McElmon

I ski for a living, have skied at hundreds of resorts and I have never been treated so poorly by customer service. I want to start by saying the skiing was fun and most employees were great especially Marshall but the HR woman, Teresa, was unbelievably rude to all of my friends and I.

My friends and I (8 professional skiers) called in advance to check ticket prices because there was so much varying info on Instagram, their website and Facebook that we didn’t know what was true. We were told by an employee on the phone that in exchange for sharing Instagram posts, taking pictures and spreading positive word about Nordic Valley we could get discounted tickets for the day. This was CONFIRMED multiple times because we had a 2 hour drive to get there and we wanted to make sure. Upon arrival, we went to get our tickets and told Teresa about our phone call with one of her employees and she REFUSED to give us discounted tickets and honor her employee’s word even though that specific employee admitted to Teresa she authorized discounts for us. After that, two employees that knew who we were wanted to help us out and give us their 8 “friends and family” discount tickets that they’re allowed to give to anyone they want and Teresa said “absolutely not” even though the employees are allowed to give to whoever they want whenever they want. There was also a $20 online “purchase in advance ticket” that we tried to purchase from the Nordic Valley website two nights before but the website was malfunctioning and wouldn’t let us purchase. I also showed her a video I took of their website not working while trying to purchase this $20 ticket and she did not care at all. We were very kind and just going off the word we were given on the phone by a Nordic Valley employee but Teresa completely shut us down, would not work with us at all, would not let us use the other employees “friends and family” discount tickets even though they gave them to us and then told us we could “pay full price or leave”.

Spending the money wasn’t the issue it was the fact that she was SO RUDE and wouldn’t honor the employee’s word after confirming multiple times over the phone that it would be no problem to give us discounted tickets. If we weren’t mislead we just wouldn’t have driven 2 hours to spend literally DOUBLE the money we were told. None of us will be returning to Nordic Valley or telling anyone to go there until this is resolved.

Nordic Valley is just plain small. There is no variety in terrain and the snow is awful. It is kid friendly, cheap and the instructors are great! Good place to learn and to teach. Other wise it is pretty crappy.

Great learning hill for all ages and abilities. The ski instructors were so patient with my children.

The after school program is great value as well.

Can't wait to see what this season will bring.

Wolf Mountain offers the cheapest deals around and is very child and family friendly. The food is overpriced, but it is still cheaper than most resorts.

It only has two small mountains and it is all extremely easy terrain. They offer a terrain park that has some simple jumps and rails, but for the price it's worth it to go here for just this alone. They have specials and are open for night skiing. If you have a lot of people or children, this is the place to go. Also, an excellent place to take beginners. If they don't like it, you aren't out too much money!

Other than that, stay away from here. If you are an experienced rider, keep going up the road to Powder Mountain.

They have snow makers so they can stay open fairly easy, but the mountain doesn't see the same type of powder as other resorts.

Wolf Mountain Freshies

We went to Wolf Mountain on our last day in Utah. We'd be skiing for most of the preceding 4 weeks so were exhausted and had been thinking about skipping the day as we'd had a few days without fresh snow. But then early afternoon the day before it started to fall, and it was still falling when we eventually dragged ourselves off the little hill that is Wolf Mountain.

I expect that if you are a well experienced powder hound you'd soon get a bit bored at Wolf, but whilst we are decent skiers we didn't have a ton of experience in the deep stuff, so had a blast putting down fresh tracks all day in 3 foot deep of the most beautiful light snow I have ever seen in my life. It felt like there was hardly anyone else on the mountain - every run was uninterrupted, there were no lift queues, and every run was fresh tracks. I would never have thought that one such a small and relatively gentle hill would give me one of the best days skiing of my life, but with Utah powder spraying in your face on every run anything is possible!

Oh, and it was cheap.

If it hasn't snowed recently then Wolf is probably best left to beginners, but if Utah has done what Utah does best then I'd say it's definitely worth considering.

Wolf Mountain is by far the best beginner/intermediate mountain in the state. The lift tickets are the best bang for the buck anywhere around. The ski school is fantastic and the mountain is always groomed to perfection.

Wolf Mountain

16/07/2010
Wolf Mountain is just a small ski hill that's very well suited to families. The prices are very low, the terrain is mellow, and it's difficult to lose the kids!

The elevation is pretty low, so the snow quality is inferior to other Utah ski resorts. However on a powder day, this place can be a lot of fun!!
