Named the #1 ski resort in North America in both 2001 and 2005 by the readers of SKI Magazine, Deer Valley Resort in Park City, Utah is the ultimate choice when it comes to winter vacations.
Deer Valley’s four mountains have a lot to offer both beginners and those who have been skiing their entire life. Bald Eagle Mountain, at an elevation of 8400 feet, was host to the 2002 Olympic Winter Games slalom, aerial and moguls. Higher up at 9100 feet is Flagstaff Mountain that challenges both beginner and intermediate skiers.
Bald Mountain at an elevation of 9400 feet is more for the intermediate and advanced skiers offering steeper, ungroomed trails and Utah’s “famous light powder”. Lastly, at 9750 feet is Empire Canyon featuring some of the most advanced skiing with eight chutes and three bowls.
Besides the 98 runs and 6 bowls another added winter attraction in Deer Valley is the TNT Park or Tricks and Turns Terrain Park. Located in Empire Canyon, the TNT Park shouldn’t be missed by visitors looking to experience single and double barrel rails, fun boxes and some jumps.
Deer Valley in the winter time also offers snowmobile tours, cross country skiing, old fashioned sleigh rides, snowshoeing and heli-skiing.
If you’re out on the slopes and realize you’ve forgotten a necessary winter item or two, Deer Valley Resort is home to a number of shops and sundries not only for the essentials but for souvenirs and gifts. Signatures, Deer Valley Etc. and Shades of Deer Valley all have that you need and more when it comes to shopping.
Accommodations in Deer Valley vary from inexpensive in-town hotels in nearby Park City, Utah or the world-renowned Stein Erikson Lodge providing luxury rooms inside Deer Valley Resort. Another lodging option at Deer Valley would be the Chateaux at Silver Lake offering a variety of units from single rooms to three-bedroom suites.
When it comes to food within Deer Valley Resort, the atmosphere compliments the meals provided at: Snow Park Lodge, Silver Lake Lodge and the Empire Canyon Lodge. Diners will enjoy a meal at the Royal Street Café, Fireside Dining or the restaurant voted #1 by Zagats, The Mariposa.
Those at Deer Valley hope that once you’ve experienced their resort, you’ll understand why they’ve received the accolades and awards that they have and you’ll agree.
