If you’ve never been to the Arizona Snowbowl during summer, you’re truly missing out. There’s just as much to do as in the winter — including the iconic chairlift that ascends nearly 10,000 feet above the mountainous and forested landscape.
For many of us, the Snowbowl is synonymous with winter – and rightfully so. The mountainous landscape truly looks like a winter wonderland when it’s blanketed in snow.
