See the canyon before you drive it. Live UDOT cameras and real-time conditions on I-80 through Parleys Canyon over Parleys Summit — the main route out of Salt Lake City toward Park City and the Wasatch ski country.
Parleys Summit carries I-80 over the Wasatch Range at ~7,020 ft. Here's what to watch, and when it bites.
Parleys Canyon funnels every Salt Lake–to–Park City driver up a steep grade into Wasatch snow, and UDOT runs chain and traction restrictions here through the winter. Heavy snow and blowing snow in the canyon can slow it to a crawl or close it, and truck restrictions are common when the grade turns icy — check the cameras before you head up.
On a snowy morning, Parleys stacks resort-bound traffic, freight, and commuters onto the same steep grade — which is why a single spun-out truck can back the canyon up for miles. At about 7,020 feet at the summit, conditions here can be completely different from the dry valley floor a few minutes behind you.
The cameras and alerts above are the stationary view — the UDOT feeds you'd check before you leave. In the MileCheck app, the nearest camera and your exact mile marker follow you up the grade automatically, hands-free on CarPlay and Android Auto, so you're never guessing which stretch you're on.
The live map above shows active closures and incidents on I-80 through Parleys, straight from UDOT. See the whole route on the I-80 corridor page or the US closures map.
UDOT sets traction and chain restrictions in Parleys Canyon through the winter, and they change with each storm. Watch the live cameras above for snow on the grade and follow posted restrictions.
About 7,020 feet on I-80 in the Wasatch Range — high enough that the summit can be in a snowstorm while Salt Lake City stays dry.
