Bogus Basin Mountain Recreation Area was named the No. 1 ski resort of 2024 by Newsweek in a competition decided by readers’ votes. Sun Valley Resort in the Wood River Valley took the No. 4 spot. “It’s humbling that Bogus Basin, a non-profit, was selected alongside some of the nation’s most prestigious destinations,” spokesperson Susan Saad said in a news release. Other top spots went to resorts in Utah, Colorado, California and New York, including Vail, Telluride, Deer Valley and Alta. Newsweek readers also voted on the best snow-tubing park. Bogus earned the No. 7 slot in that poll, and North Idaho’s Silver Mountain Resort in Kellogg took No. 10.
