A ski resort's overall star rating displayed here is not calculated based on a simple average but takes several factors, including the age of a review, into account.
We visit Park City every year because the views are breathtaking, and there are always new trails to explore. The backcountry is incredibly fun, and it's also a great place to learn snowboarding, which I started last year.
Be sure to bring enough snow jackets and pants, as local stores don’t offer many stylish options. I prefer baggy outfits for snowboarding, with 686 and Dopesnow as my favorite brands. Recently, I found amazing snow jackets and hoodies from YoloSnowClub on Instagram. Their chic, bright-colored apparel is high quality, overall, make sure you pack enough clothing and gloves for your trip to Park City!

Sort out the parking. It is diabolical

My family had a great time. Conditions were phenomenal.

I’m a huge fan of what used to be The Canyons. Amazing blue runs and not too crowded. Wish it was still its own ski area.

Lots of mountain to explore and so many trails. Mountainvillage a bit crowded and runs didn't feel excellent but once you go to canyon side it was incredible and completely different ! Only downside is you have to be comfortable skiing blues to get over there so no exactly beginner friendly

If they could fix the parking and long traffic lines getting in and out, a lot of shortcomings could be overlooked.

Wish the full mountain was open more, often multiple lifts are closed.
Parke resort for many years and this was the first year that I’ve seen entire areas closed, which would never before closed. With Val canceling the volunteer patrol I think they did a big disservice to all the public that comes to Park City. Their parking still terrible and now with the increase of skiers due to the epic and icon pass, they need to do something about parking

I love this mountain. Veil is not helping. Shutting down Jupiter and Thaynes lift with a base over 110 inches is criminal. I wish it truly was our mountain. Alas. Despite Veil, and their app which can’t remember my login for more than a few days, the culture at park city is the best. One example. I lost a glove for the first time in the storm yesterday on the Bonanza chair. Big gust. Don’t look at your phone on the lift? So I skied to miners camp and bought some new amazing mittens (and yes, my right hand was frozen). Next day going up Bonanza. And I see some has found my glove and posted on a pole in plain site! I skied the poles and retrieved my glove. Yay! Thank you unnamed soul who found my glove. Thank you! And the poles on Bonaza are a great run.

The Park City/Deer Valley ski area is the biggest lift-serviced area in North and South America including Whistler/Blackcomb, also typically with much better quality of snow than the West Coast. This skiiable terrain doesn't include the fact that they are more than doubling the size of Deer Valley next season with an additional 3700 acres. There really isn't an immediate convenient area that offers as much to do in Winter or all four Seasons in addition to downhill skiing. If you're looking for jamming as many options as possible into a destination resort then Park City is hands down your best bet. Activity-wise, trying to compare the Park City area with any number of popular ski resorts is like comparing a popular local amusement park with the entirety of Orlando. If that weren't enough the quality of the snow in Utah is usually far superior, especially these past two seasons. If you're going to be spending several days or a week or more in Park City, I strongly suggest you take advantage of the many nearby neighboring resorts that are not quite as busy on weekends, particularly those that are about an hour to the north. Adj. Deer Valley limits its skier numbers and is uber-posh but can be a bit expensive, (no more than lesser resorts in Colorado or California), but if you're on a budget plan ahead and you will beat the weekend crowds. There is a vast array of resorts along Utah's Wasatch Coast of Ski Mountains. Do your homework pre-trip and you won't be disappointed.
