first snow means first ski comin up... park city mountain review

Today was the first time it has snowed with a chance of the snow actually staying on the ground which means ski season is right around the corner.  i CANNOT WAIT.


Today Mountain is park city mountain in Prk City utah.  This is is one of my favorite areas to ski around  because there are 5 different resorts in a 10 mile radius and they all recieve insane amounts of snow every year.  the DAy i went to park city, it had snowed about 2 feet of fresh powder the night before and it was one of the coolest days of skiing i have ever had.  We would take easy square runs and because of the knee deep powder, it made every trail as adventurous as the next.  Considering how big the mountain( almost 150 trails) is we couldnt explore the whole thing but i was lucky enough to try out some of the harder bowls in the upper region of the mountain.  These were trails that had 5 foot drops just to get on the trail but it honestly looked like fun and boy was it.  I had some of the hardest best skiing of my life while my dad watched in agony as i tranveresed these insane bowls.  I even lost my skis for about 5 minutes after a fall but after swifting through the snow for some time, i was able to find them and continue skiing.  This mountain is made for powder and is a amazing place with fun for everyone.

ENJOY the SNOW

  1. I didn't know you skiied. My son lived in Tahoe for seven years and has been spoiled by Squaw and other places out that way. But he has, on occasion skiied at West or Gore. Too bad (for skiiers) that the snow went away.
