Many properties like to offer a variety of different day passes to suit the needs of their guests and travelers who are just passing through. That's why it's important to also remember that not all day passes offer the same equal value. The Sun Valley in Resort in Idaho offers day passes that provide travelers with some of the best experiences you'll find anywhere. It doesn't matter if you're a guest at the resort, or you're just looking to spend a day surrounded by one of the most beautiful landscapes in the entire country. The Park City Resort in Utah offers something for everyone. Here's are some descriptions that come directly from their property:
ENHANCED ON-MOUNTAIN EXPERIENCE WITH EXPANDED SNOWMAKING
"Start exploring the mountain earlier thanks to new snowmaking capabilities on Red Pine Road, a major connector trail off of Tombstone Express. More snow allows for this trail to open earlier in the season and provide access to even more terrain across the mountain. More access, more terrain, more adventures ready when you are."
115+ TRAILS GROOMED ON AVERAGE EVERY NIGHT
"With 7,300 acres and 348 trails, grooming at Park City is no small feat. Around 40 snowcats spread out across the resort over the course of two shifts per night to groom over 120 trails into the corduroy-like lines you see in the morning.
For many of our groomers, the act of smoothing the snow over in to crisp, clean lines for a fresh start each day is an art form. Creating a surface for everyone, from beginners to professional racers, to enjoy is something that our grooming team prides themselves on."
A MOUNTAIN OF HISTORY
"Park City was incorporated as a city in 1884 and the mountains' abundant silver veins attracted adventurers from around the world in the late 1860's. However, with falling mineral prices in the 1930's, the booming years ended and residents began "mining" the treasure on the mountains, discovering what would later be called The Greatest Snow on Earth.
In 2002, Park City became a field of dreams for athletes at the Winter Olympic Games. Park City Mountain hosted four events and six of the ten U.S. Ski and Snowboard Team medals were won on the mountain.
Today, Park City is a unique blend of new and old with remnants of its history still scattered across the mountain."
