So after a pretty good day at Brighton, we decided to take a visit to Park City to check out that area. Â We arrive to find that the Window price is $50, thats 30% off the regular price, what a bargain!
Well, maybe.
I guess this sign should have been a sign. Â But we came all this way, might as well check it out right?
There are only 2 lifts open, so we pick the highspeed 6-pack and take stock of the conditions
Hmm, this isnt looking so good, but we’re still optimistic, right up until we hit the top of this lift.
OMG! Â Okay, we’re here, we’ve gotta check it out. Â Yeah, this one “groomer” is made of concrete-hard icy stuff. Â No off-piste opportunity to be found.
I dont think we even needed the map at this point, there was really only one way down.
Bits of a terrain park are open too, but its fairly big stuff. Â At least these guys are having fun
After pounding the “groomers” a few times, its about time for lunch. Â I gotta say the rice with this chicken quesadilla was really really good. Â But the Draft Beer guy didnt get setup with beer yet! Â I had my hopes up after seeing his sign!
After lunch, Root decides his spine needs a rest, so goes off to look for a locker. Â I feel a disturbance in the force, and he appears shortly later exclaiming, “How much for a pack of double-a batteries?!” (as quoted from Falling Down) Apparently it cost $7 to rent a day locker!
The value for my $50 lift ticket was poor. Â Lunch was generally good, but kind of spendy, but not having the beer really puts a dent into whatever value was there. Â The $7 lockers was really over the top!
I might give Park City another chance during the prime season since the gelande seems pretty big, but the early season gets 2 out of 5 fist raising, power fighting monkeys. Â And it gets the 2 because the rice was that good.
