I am a Canyons fan due to the large number of choices across the resort.
Park City also has some good runs but is not as large. For wide groomers if
you skiers only you can also check out Deer Valley in Park City. No boarders
allowed there yet. Neat thing about Park City is that you can shuttle
between town and all the ski resorts with ease. If you are there for a
couple of days, check them all out! Plus you can rent a car and head over to
Brighton, Solitude, Snowbird, and Alta within 40 minutes. Another you might
like would be Snowbasin just north of Park City. It has some nice
intermediate runs.

Not the last time I was there.

Brighton better fits a "mostly boarders" label.

PC and Canyons are so close together that you can check it out for
yourself. Once you do tell us what you think.
