Beaver Mountain Ski Resort is a family-friendly ski resort located off US Highway 89, also known as the Logan Canyon Scenic Byway in the Bear River Mountains of Northern Utah.

The origins of Beaver Mountain Ski Area date back to 1939 when Logan City operated a small ski area with a cable tow, but it had limited success as it was challenging to get to. Fast forward a few years later when local residents and outdoor enthusiasts, Harold and Luella Seeholzer had a dream of creating a winter recreation area for their family and members of the community to enjoy.

Beaver Mountain Ski Resort began in 1949, with a Rope Tow and a warming hut to allow skiers to get warm on a cold winters day. Change and development continued over the next several decades beginning with the installation of a T-Bar in 1950, and then in 1961 the first chairlift was installed, plus more skiable terrain was added to support the increased skier visits which continued to grow year over year.

There are also several annual fun events that occur at the mountain, the Harold Seeholzer Memorial Race held on the last Saturday in February, and the Snoopy Carnival held on the third Saturday in March.

The Seeholzer family has operated the Beaver Mountain Ski Resort for over 65 years with the motto “We Want You to be Part of the Family,” and it shows as the family-friendly environment is evident throughout the ski area.
