You may (or may not) have noticed a bit of an absence on my behalf…. Well, yes, I’ve unfortunately been AWOL with some personal business. But with now that I have all that out of the way, I thought I’d let y’all know I’m back in the saddle again.
A new year seems a fitting time to get back in the groove. Even though I may have been incognito, I haven’t missed the fact the Park City’s seen some big changes, and lots of progress even just over the last couple of months. Park City’s three resorts are off to a good start, and with some extra help from Mother Nature expect a good year despite the tough economy. Dakota Mountain Lodge at The Canyons Resort & Deer Valley’s St. Regis Hotel both are open, and The Montage Hotel in Empire Pass is well under-way.
Don’t let all that distract you from the future though, this winter will still have plenty of action…especially with Sundance just around the corner. Be sure to visit, and don’t forget that the festival is a great time for some surprisingly uncrowded skiing.
If you still haven’t booked your vacation yet, you may want to get to it. Most of the resorts are offering some great discounts to get you in the door, and even more to stay in the door. And maybe a few options that won’t even tell you about such as The Canyons Pair Pass: Two lift tickets, Two burgers, and two beers (or soft drinks) for $119 (keep in mind, one lift pass at The Canyons is $81). But deals like that do come with limitations, tickets must be purchase online, in advance… and it’s only good till Feb. 11, 2010.
