The 2026 summit is at Sun Valley Resort in Sun Valley, Idaho.
The organizer lists local elected officials, sustainability teams, ski resort leaders, nonprofits, and local businesses as audience groups.
It is most useful for local elected officials, sustainability staff and ski resort leaders from mountain and rural communities who want peer examples of climate work, since the gathering is aimed at those groups and the speakers include Mayor Lauren McLean and David Roberts. Vendors hoping for a big buyer pool will find little, as only Torus, Inc. and Frontline Wildfire Defense are listed as sponsors, and people working on urban or national climate policy may find the mountain-town focus narrow.
Attendees at mountain resort town summits usually wear casual business attire with outdoor touches such as fleece, boots and layers, since mid October in Sun Valley can be cold in the mornings.
