Southwest Adventures charges $145 per person for this tour, while the lodge itself charges $20. When I questioned the difference in cost after our experience (I didn't initially know you could book directly through the lodge) they said "We have many people local to the Salt Lake area take our tour because they do not like to drive in the dark through the mountains." I promise, this drive is not treacherous, and not at all worth $125 per person to have them drive you (if you consider the Lodge's $20 your cost). Obviously you wouldn't want to drive up in a snow storm, but that wouldn't be a good day for stargazing anyway. Scott was awesome and so was Michelle who drove us, but please learn from us and don't get ripped off, this is an insane cost for what you're getting. We spent 45 minutes in the observatory and the rest of the time was spent touring the inn, which they don't outline in the itinerary. Absolutely do not recommend and will not utilize this company again. Although I would recommend driving up to the lodge (it's adorable) and taking the tour for $20.
