HOW DO I GET THERE? Book your UT flight to Salt Lake City International Airport (SLC).
HOW DO I GET AROUND ONCE I ARRIVE? We recommend that you plan to rent a car to travel from the airport to Eden, UT in the Ogden Valley. (The trip will take approximately 45 minutes. See directions below.) An all-wheel drive vehicle is recommended in case we see snow!
Uber does operate in Salt Lake City and a ride from the airport for 4 people would cost approximately $50-$70. However, the Valley is a remote spot with lots of wide open space, so you'll need access to a car once you arrive to get just about everywhere…the local market, area restaurants, and the trails/mountains if you plan to hike or ski.
NOTE: SHUTTLE SERVICE will be available between Wolf Creek Resort and Snowbasin Lodge for the wedding and reception on Saturday, 12/17/2016. (Please see detailed information below.)
