Tell me about Utah
This is my first trip out west and I'm going into SLC Feb. 23-25. I have
accomodations already: 2 nights in SLC and 1 in Park City. I ski very little, but skied a lot 20 years ago (I'm an intermediate with a lot of energy). Can you tell me about the best mountains, lift lines, nightlife. Where would you do your skiing? Thanks in advance! Dewey |

... Can you tell me about the best mountains, lift lines, nightlife. Where would you do your skiing? Thanks in advance! Dewey I got in trouble skiing out of bounds and very nearly had my inter-mountain tix yanked (after an resort employee told me I could ski between PC ski resort and Deer valley?) It's very nice though. I might try the next canyon south, Snowbird? etc. I remember having to overcompensate on the hydration though; in the desert, you know. The nightclubs you have to be a 'member' to get in but since it was dead when I was there, they cut a 'deal'. Club Ringo on PCs main drag. |

Sometimes you can just walk in and ask if someone will "sponser" you. There was a term the local used for this, but I don't remember it now - it was quite some time ago... Janet |

Two days in SLC and one in PC? Spend one day in Big Cottonwood Canyon (Solitude or Brighton) one day in Little Cottonwood Canyon (Alta) and one day at Park City ( Park City Mountain Resort ). Avoid Brighton on Saturday (kids ski free, so it's mobbed with LDS families). Alta can get crowded on Saturday too. Solitude will not be crowded. Can't really say about PC, haven't been there enough. All the resorts mentioned have a variety of runs and you should be able to find terrain to suit you at any of them. Buy your passes in town to save some $$$. http://www.canyonsports.com/tickets.html Nightlife? If you ski like you're supposed to, you won't have any energy for nightlife. But you may find this useful: http://www.slcparty.com/Laws.htm good luck have fun. //Walt |
