4-Day of wonderful Utah Powder!!! FYI- If you go to http://www.parkcityinfo.com/ there is a promotion that offers free lift tickets to any of the Park City resorts if you ski on the same day you arrive. You just need to have the form filled out, an ID and your boarding pass. We booked an early morning flight and about an hour after we landed we were on the slopes for FREE. We also saved a lot by making our own meals and taking advantage of the free bus es. Yes! Skiing and Snowboarding trips CAN be affordable!

Fantastic rate and wonderful accommodation. The room had a separate bedroom (double size bed) and bath. Small living room with an adjoining kitchenette. Full refrigerator, stove and dishwasher, so we made all our own meals. The place is clean and cozy and had a fireplace and balcony too. Perfect size for 2 people. A block away from the bus stop which ran into town and to the resorts.

Amazing snow, long and numerous runs. I enjoyed this resort more than Snowmass and Buttermilk in Aspen. The snow is exceptional and there was light continual snowfall the entire time (just enough to give a nice fresh layer every morning we were there).

Very cute street with lotsa restaurant/bar type places. If I had a bigger budget, I might have explored more of the dining. Mostly galleries and local artsy-boutique-y stores. Best part is, the area is easily accessible through the free bus. Store keepers said that it gets crazy crowded during the Sundance Festival (late January), so if you don't like hordes of Hollywood-types, make sure to skip that weekend.

This mountain was gorgeous. I thought it was even more scenic than Park City and the trails were very interesting! Nice place for powder hounds... not really for terrain features. A little drive away from Park City, but on the way back to the airport. I would DEFINITELY go back.

Got to see Jr. Olympic luge trials. Very fast and very cool. We did a bit of a whirlwind tour of the place because it was close to closing time. It's a pretty small museum featuring Olympic
