This is my personal favorite of the resorts in Utah. There is plenty of room and terrain for all experience levels. Snowbird has some of the best snow on earth, and there are great trails off the beaten path where you can often find fresh powder. If you're experienced, get a tram pass, or head up to the Little Cloud lift.
There are also fun things like a mountain slide, and zip line to do in the summer. Little Cottonwood Canyon is a very popular cycling route as well. The Queen's stage of The Tour of Utah ends at Snowbird in August, and amateur riders can ride the same route in the Ultimate Challenge the same day. It's a brutal ride with over 12,000 feet of elevation in 110 miles.

Parks & Nature
This canyon has some great hikes, but it is one of my favorite road bike rides, and probably the most popular in the state. The canyon is a good one for various skill levels since it has a gradual incline up to the first switchbacks. Newer riders can stop at the switchbacks, and more experienced riders can keep going to Little Mountain, Big Mountain, or East Canyon Reservoir.

Arts & Culture
The Leonardo is great for kids and adults. They have a standard set of exhibits that are great for any curious child that wants a hands-on learning experience in the areas of Science, Technology, Engineering, Math or Art.
There are also rotating exhibits about many topics that appeal to a broader age group like Mummys, Dead Sea Scrolls, Homelessness, Human Rights, Water, Flight and many more. Check with the museum to find out what exhibits are currently on display.
The museum also holds adult-only evening events focused on food or culture. I've never been to one of these, but they seem to be popular.
