Exploring North America’s Second Largest Ski Resort

Navigating Park City: Embarking on my first skiing adventure at Park City, I delved into the vast expanse of its 7,300 skiable acres, uncovering an array of experiences and lessons along the way.

The Mountain: A Haven for All Skill Levels

Park City’s allure lies in its versatility, catering to skiers of all abilities. With 43 lifts and 341 runs, it stands as North America’s second largest ski resort, offering something for everyone.

Planning Ahead: The Epic Pass Advantage

Securing a three-day Epic Pass ahead of time proved to be a wise decision, providing both convenience and cost savings. Having a plan in place is essential to maximize your time on the slopes and avoid unnecessary traversing.

Navigating the Resort: A Tale of Two Sides

Divided into two distinct sides, Park City offers diverse terrain and experiences. Whether traversing via gondola, shuttle, or simply sticking to one side per day, there’s plenty to explore.

Day One: Unveiling Park City’s Charms

Starting on the Park City side, our journey led us through exhilarating runs and scenic vistas. From the Crescent Express to McConkey’s Bowl, each trail offered its own thrill, culminating in moments of camaraderie and adventure.

Day Two: Venturing into Canyons

Transitioning to the Canyons side, we discovered a haven of tranquility amidst smaller crowds and expansive trails. From the Orange Bubble Express to Upper Crowning Glory, each lift brought us closer to nature’s wonders.

Memorable Encounters: Beyond the Slopes

Beyond the adrenaline-fueled descents, Park City surprised us with unexpected delights. From on-mountain art exhibits to encounters with wildlife, every moment was a testament to the resort’s allure.

As I reflect on my skiing escapade at Park City, I’m filled with gratitude for the memories made and lessons learned. With its vast terrain and endless opportunities for adventure, Park City remains a haven for ski enthusiasts of all levels.
