Living in Cottonwood Heights
Cottonwood Heights became a city in 2005 and sits on the southeast bench of the Salt Lake Valley. Its biggest draw is location: Big Cottonwood Canyon (Solitude and Brighton) and Little Cottonwood Canyon (Snowbird and Alta) start right at the city’s edge.
- Skiing: four resorts within a short drive up the canyons.
- Trails: the Bonneville Shoreline Trail, Ferguson Canyon and Butler Fork are close by.
- Commute: I-215 and Fort Union Boulevard connect to the rest of the valley.
