The most AMOOSING thing about Park City! 

Our guests were lucky enough to find two moose on their hike yesterday!!! ⛰👟🌿  They hiked up Main Street and onwards onto Daly.  They said they saw the moose about 10 minutes after they went around the water tower.

PC's local motto: "People come for the winter, but stay because of the summer."

Park City's powdered snow -- is there anything better? After all, Utah's slogan is "the greatest snow on earth." This winter was a blast! From skiing and snowboarding to enjoying Sundance and some great eats on Main, it is always hard to say goodbye to one of our favorite times of year.

PC's unofficial local motto "people come for the winter, but stay because of the summer" could not be more true. Now that it's officially summer, hiking trails are open and mountain bikers are back! Nothing is better than the warm sun and gorgeous PC mountain backdrop. Other fun summer activities: fly fishing, horseback riding, hot air ballooning, wine tours, kayaking, etc. Check out these special offers for Elevation Lodge guests!
