Park City Resort overview |
|
One of North America's best-known resorts, the legendary powder snow of Park City has long been an irresistible attraction for skiers. A former mining town, this colourful past is at the heart of Park City and the spirit of the Old West is still be to be found in the historic Victorian buildings on Main Street.
As Utah's largest ski area, both in terms of skiable acreage and lift capacity, Park City Mountain Resort offers terrain to please every ability, level and taste. The resort opened in 1963 and was known as Treasure Mountain. A historic mining town, Park City is now world-renowned for skiing and snowboarding and a huge variety of outdoor activities. If you want over 3300 acres of incredibly varied terrain, skiing in Park City is definitely for you. Skiing in North America doesn't get better than this!
Park City Mountain Resort hosted the snowboard events and the men's and women's giant alpine slalom events in the 2002 Olympic Winter Games. Millions of dollars of improvements have been made, making the resort what it is today.
Skiing in Park City is at an altitude of 6900 feet with the stunningly beautiful Wasatch Mountains as a backdrop, just 37 miles east of the Salt Lake International Airport. It is home to three enormous ski areas: Deer Valley, The Canyons and Park City Mountain Resort. All three are in close proximity to each other. Park City also has an air temperature warmer than the North American norm. According to locals their snow is 'fluffed and dried' in the clouds as they come over the desert, before being dumped on the resort.
The town has an ambience that is reminiscent of Park City Utah's past life as an historic mining town and is filled with a variety of unique shops, restaurants, bars and art galleries. There is even a saloon owned by Robert Redford and, ironically, once robbed by the real Sundance Kid that Redford famously portrayed on film.
Night skiing is offered seven nights a week on one beginner and one intermediate slope. It attracts both skiers and snowboarders alike and is a major tourist attraction for skiers from all over the United States. Park City holds many training courses for the U.S. Ski Team, including slalom and giant slalom runs. The resort hosted all snowboard events and the men's and women's alpine giant slalom events in the 2002 Winter Olympics.
