In the first update of the season, Vice President of Mountain Operations Steve Graff shares exciting progress on Deer Valley’s terrain expansion, part of the resort’s Expanded Excellence initiative. Filmed at the top of the East Village Gondola at Park Peak, Steve highlights major construction milestones including the nearly complete mid-station at Big Dutch, a finished base terminal, and ongoing work on the East Village skier services building. A temporary facility featuring dining, rentals, and ski storage will open for the 2025–2026 season.

In this update, Brett Hawksford, Snowmaking Manager at Deer Valley since 2003, gives an inside look at the construction of the new Hail Peak Maintenance Facility—home to what will be one of the most advanced snowmaking systems in North America. The project includes 1,200 snow guns, 350,000 feet of pipe, three pump houses, and a 10-million-gallon snowmaking pond. With a fully automated system and separate pressure zones for each part of the mountain, the upgrade will allow for faster, longer-lasting snow coverage. Brett also notes the need to expand the snowmaking team and thanks the contractors working hard to bring this massive effort to life in time for winter.
