The largest of these, with ninety-three runs on 2,200 skiable acres and some night skiing, is Park City Mountain Resort, located in the center of town. The Canyons' new owners, the American Skiing Group, have begun a major transformation to improve everything. The 2,000 skiable acres now have seventy-three runs and six new lifts. The lodgings at Silver Lake, mid-mountain at 8,400 feet, have a distinctly European feel, especially the Stein Eriksen Lodge, built by the legendary Olympic skier. Every conceivable convenience is provided for those who can afford the five-star treatment.
Park City offers diversity and a choice for any budget.
The Canyons and Deer Valley have nursery or child care on-premises. Park City and The Canyons allow snowboarders on their slopes. All offer excellent instruction. Take a guided tour or rent a snowmobile. Put on cross-country skis or snowshoes for a walk in the wilds.
