Environmental friendliness of the ski resort Solitude

The ski resort aims to minimise its impacts on the environment and maintain the beauty of Big Cottonwood Canyon. Solitude has operated a comprehensive recycling system since 2012. The snowcats use organic, biodegradable hydraulic fluid.

Parking charges reduce the number of cars. Car pools receive a discount on parking charges. Employees are transported in minibuses to reduce private traffic. Visitors are recommended to take the Utah Transit Authority (UTA) ski bus which travels directly to the ski resort. This is free of charge for season card holders and Solitude supports this financially.

The lifts are powered with the help of credits for renewable energies. These finance solar and wind power. Forestry focuses on environmental conservation and resources are reduced where possible.
