The Nest at Snowbird has soared to the finish line. With demolition and construction at this elevation, the project required detailed planning, adaptability, and constant coordination. Through a year of logistical preparation, our crews began footings in late fall, carried out the demolition in early spring, and built through just one winter. Working within tight schedules and challenging conditions, the team kept progress moving safely and efficiently on a complex mountain site.
Thank you to GSBS, trade partners, project teams, city partners, and Snowbird staff for the commitment it took to build at such a demanding site.
