We were among the first ones on the mountain. Probably because of the short ride, we only skied Deer Valley and Park City on this trip. In a way, that was a loss because of all the other great skiing in the Salt Lake City area. Although many of the ski areas around Salt Lake City can t really be called resorts, because they hardly have any amenities. They do have great skiing, however.
Deer Valley is the most expensive resort in the area.
We ve never stayed there, but we did check out the prices on some real estate there just for kicks. Let s just say that million-dollar condos are out of our league and leave it at that. We didn t check out any rental prices after seeing the purchase prices. However, if you stay somewhere else and drive there, there are some amenities that you get with the price of a lift ticket that really impress us. To start with, they have valets who help you unload the skis from your car at a drop-off area.
