Brighton Ski Trail Map - Layered Wood Wall Art
by Mountaincut
Utah's oldest resort and the Wasatch's night-skiing capital, now on your wall. Mountaincut's Brighton Ski Trail Map is a layered wooden wall art piece featuring hand-traced ski trails expertly laser cut from premium birch and/or walnut plywood, a handcrafted tribute to the beloved Big Cottonwood Canyon local's mountain where 500 inches of Wasatch powder falls and the lifts keep spinning long after dark.
Utah's Original Ski Resort, Captured in Wood
Perched at the head of Big Cottonwood Canyon just 35 miles from Salt Lake City, Brighton Resort is Utah's oldest ski area and one of its most beloved. It takes its name from William Stuart Brighton, a Scottish immigrant who came west as a Mormon pioneer in the 1850s and obtained 80 acres at the top of the canyon, spending his first summer in a tent before building a one-room cabin. Today, Brighton encompasses three peaks and 1,050 acres of skiable terrain, with 66 runs and a vertical drop of roughly 1,750 to 1,875 feet from a base of 8,755 feet. Brighton is the only Utah resort where 100% of the terrain is accessible by high-speed lifts, served by the Crest 6 Express, Utah's fastest chairlift, plus high-speed quads and a triple. And its position at the head of the canyon creates a microclimate that regularly captures more snow than neighboring resorts, averaging a staggering 500 inches a season. This handcrafted map captures all three peaks and every run in beautiful layered wood relief.
Every Peak, Every Park, Every Memory
Brighton's terrain breaks down to roughly 21% beginner, 40% intermediate, and 39% advanced and expert, with an intuitive layout where trails funnel naturally back to the central base area. The Majestic and Explorer zones serve beginners, and locals vote Brighton number one in Utah for family-friendly terrain and best value year after year, with kids six and under skiing free. Intermediate and advanced skiers head to Millicent, Great Western, and Snake Creek, where excellent tree skiing and sheltered wooded zones hold soft turns for days after a storm, and chutes, bumps, and drops keep strong skiers creative. But Brighton's real identity is freestyle: this is a park-heavy, snowboard-friendly mountain with five terrain parks spread across Majestic, Candyland, My Oh My, and Pee-Wee, where freestyle isn't a side feature but part of the mountain's rhythm. And then there's the night skiing. With over 200 acres and roughly 30 to 32 illuminated trails running until 9 p.m. six nights a week, Brighton offers the most extensive night skiing in the Salt Lake area, effectively doubling your time on snow. The SolBright connection to neighboring Solitude expands the terrain even further.
Exceptional Craftsmanship, Made in the USA
All Mountaincut wooden trail maps are precision laser cut and etched, hand-stained, and finished in the United States using birch and/or walnut plywood. The two-layer construction creates a rich, dimensional look where the mountain's three peaks and trail network stand out in beautiful relief. Hanging hardware comes preinstalled, so your new trail map will be on display in minutes.
Because each piece is crafted from real wood, no two maps are exactly alike, with natural variations in the grain and stain giving every piece its own character, just like a deep powder night under the lights in Big Cottonwood.
The Perfect Gift for Brighton Devotees
Whether you learned to turn here like generations of Salt Lake locals, found soft snow in Snake Creek Woods days after a storm, spent your winters lapping the parks, rode night laps until the lights went out, or simply love a mountain that keeps the original spirit of Utah skiing intact, this map is a lasting reminder of Utah's O.G. resort. Part of the Boyne family and accessible on the Ikon Pass, Brighton deserves a place on your wall. Mountaincut products are made to order and most items ship within 2 to 3 days.
