Winter Hits Park City

Jaci — Thu, 25 Oct 2012 17:58:25 +0000

A winter weather advisory is in effect for Park City through this afternoon, and we can see why! We woke up yesterday with smiles on our faces because of the dusting we got overnight. That snow melted as the sun came out yesterday afternoon, but we were greeted with another pleasant surprise this morning! It’s been dumping snow all morning, and continues to come down in Park City at about an inch each hour! Park City Mountain Resort turned on their guns to bolster Mother Nature’s efforts last night in preparation for opening day November 17, and Canyons is getting ready for their November 23 opening too. We’re very excited for this winter, and hope that the early snow is an indication of what we should expect all season.

Snow makes whiteness where it falls,
The bushes look like popcorn balls.
The places where I always play,
Look like somewhere else today.

Spring Skiing in Park City, Utah

Amber — Tue, 20 Mar 2012 17:44:34 +0000

We all know this has been a crazy winter with lack of snow and warmer temperatures, but this wasn’t the case for Utah over the past 72 hours. I suppose Mother Nature wanted to bless the coming of Spring because the resorts in Park City, and all around Utah, received 24 inches of snow – or more!

It all started Sunday, March 18, when I woke up the morning after a festive St. Patrick’s Day (to say the least)… I looked outside the window and there it was… snow had covered the earth and Park City was once again the heavenly and beautiful white we love so much. And it didn’t stop there… it continued to snow all day Sunday, Sunday night and all day Monday as well. As the locals like to say, “it was puking out there!” So this could only mean one thing — POWDER DAY!

I am originally from the Midwest and this is my first official winter season living in Park City, so you can only imagine the slight disappointment I’ve had because of our snow conditions. Especially after the crazy record-breaking amounts of snow the nation received last year. So when the powder opportunity arrived, you better believe I was geared up and ready to head to Canyons Resort! And let me tell you, it was crazy, awesome, breathtaking, exhausting and so much fun all rolled into one. Mother Nature kept playing tricks on us, though… one minute the snow is dumping and I can’t see anything in the low light, and the next minute the sun was shining. So you just had to go with the flow and go for it… For all you other powder-lovers out there, I hope you were able to enjoy as well.

14″ of NEW SNOW in Utah!

Amber — Mon, 13 Feb 2012 19:21:33 +0000

We all know the weatherman isn’t always right and sometimes that’s a good thing! The weather forecast for this past weekend called for 2-4 inches in Park City and surrounding areas; however, that wasn’t exactly the case… in fact, according to weather reports, we received 14″ of fresh powder! It was a great feeling to have your roommate wake you up at 7:30 am, tell you to look outside and this is what you see…

Needless to say, we were on the mountain at Park City Mountain Resort within an hour and enjoyed a day full of fresh pow and riding through trees! The best part, more snow is on the way… Hope to see you in Park City, Utah!
