Park City Mountain Resort 3/24

Another day of spring skiing. Overnight temps were in the mid-twenties. But it warmed up quickly and hit a high near 50. The snow was a little firm at first, but softened up nicely.

I don't get down to the Town Lift very often, so decided to check it out today. Both Quittin' Time and Creole runs were in great shape and there was no line at all for the lift -- that couldn't be said for most other lifts on the mountain.

I'm surprised at how crowded things still are. I thought the crowds might die down after Easter. But there must be enough schools still on spring break. I guess Park City is just that popular. :)


(Beautiful slopeside living.)

I made a couple of runs off Thaynes (Double Jack and Comstock) and McConkey's (Tycoon and Sunrise) before finishing up on Silver Skis. A short day, but fun nonetheless.

If you go, remember it's a bit firm in the mornings. Maybe better to wait a bit and let the sun soften things up. But keep in mind that those runs that get the sun all morning will be slushy by the afternoon. Move around the mountain and find something you like.
