Description
Reduced rates on advanced bookings for winter 24/25! We are anticipating A TON of snow this year. Let's get out there! We are still new on this platform and need to earn more raving reviews. We have our rates low just to make sure we get with some great people and get outside. Our snowshoe experience is more rugged and adventurous than other treks on private ranches or hillsides near town. We take you (by permit) into the National Forest to capture amazing scenery and views. We also consider everyone's comfort level and tailor the experience to trails and distances that match your interest and ability. No prior snowshoeing experience is necessary. We got this!

MTXutah - The Best Ticket in Park City!
I highly recommend you book an experience with MTXutah. We have booked the past two years we have visited Park City - both times the MTXutah experience was the highlight of our trip. We have done just about every experience Park City has to offer - from dog sledding to snowmobiling - and our time with CJ consistently ranks as the most memorable. CJ exhibits that rare combination of knowledge, enthusiasm and sheer will to make sure you will have a wonderful time. You will NOT be disappointed. Thank you CJ. See you next time!

Amazing snowshoeing adventure
We had the best time snowshoeing with our guide CJ. He was friendly, super knowledgeable and took us in the backcountry where it was just us and nature. The trek was personalized to our skills and so much fun. This is a great workout and allows you to see areas of the Utah mountains you wouldn’t otherwise. CJ provided transportation from our accommodations, snacks and water. Do yourself a favor and book this adventure!

Back country snoeshoe hike at Uinita National Park
This was the perfect snowshoe experience for me. We did a short hike into the Uinita National Forest. The scenery and views were amazing. We went at a pace that was good for me. 3 miles was perfect for me but we could have done less or hiked further. I enjoyed CJ's company and stories. Cj accomodated pickup/dropoff at my hotel. We only saw a few other people on the trail. I had a great time.

Utah Mountain Excursion - No Crowds!
What a great snowshoe day! We are locals to Park City, but wanted to try a fun new adventure. The snowshoe experience did not disappoint. CJ was well prepared with high quality gear, had great stories and was fun to learn from. The whole day was well organized from start to finish and all at our pace because it is a private tour. Beautiful scenery even for us locals. This is a great way to get away from the ski resort crowds, and truly enjoy a peaceful mountain experience. We'd definitely book this excursion again!

Memories for a Lifetime!
My fiancé and I travelled to Utah to celebrate our anniversary (which turned into celebrating our engagement) and to attend a book convention, so we wanted to explore some more of the area. I was recommended to take a look at MTXutah and booked the snowshoeing experience.
CJ picked us up from our hotel in SLC and took us up into the mountains, telling us about where we were as we passed through! We eventually made it to Tea Kettle Lake and trekked all the way around it. Once we finished with that, CJ took us to come overlooks, a frozen waterfall, and then we ended the day with Fizz!
I HIGHLY recommend booking this experience. CJ made me and my fiancé feel safe and comfortable, provided water and snacks, and told us so many interesting facts. The views are unlike anything I’ve ever seen or experienced before, truly out of this world.
The communication beforehand was very nice as well. CJ made sure we knew exactly what to wear, how long it was going to take us to get to our destination, and what the weather was going to be like. I originally wanted to do the moonlight snowshoeing experience, but he was upfront and honest with me by explaining that there would be no moon the week we were there and that he suggested we do a day hike. I really appreciated this!
Two things that I made a mistake on, but that have nothing to do with the experience: 1) Bring sunglasses: though CJ brought some for us, bring your own because it gets bright!
2)Altitude: I’m from the Chicago area so the elevation got me really bad. Be sure to hydrate hydrate hydrate! Hiking that high up is no joke and you will pay for it if you aren’t ready.
All in all, this was something that we’ll remember forever and is a must do if you ever visit the SLC or Park City area!

You can’t go wrong with CJ and MTX Utah!
CJ did a fantastic job! He’s very knowledgeable about the area and enjoys sharing his love of Utah! He drove us into the Wasatch Mountains to a beautiful spot by a lake where we snowshoed. He took us to Bald Mountain Pass and the highest paved road in the State. We also appreciated all the great pics that he took! We highly recommend CJ and MTX Utah!
