PARK CITY MOUNTAIN RESORT’S HOLIDAY FAMILY EVENTS
Celebrate the Holiday Season with Park City Mountain Resort
Park City, Utah (December 10, 2009) – Park City Mountain Resort celebrates the 2009 holiday season with family events for the local community and destination visitors during the month of December.
“Park City Mountain Resort is a magical place to be during the holidays and the reason why so many families choose to celebrate with us time and time again,” said Krista Parry, director of marketing for Park City Mountain Resort. “Our holiday events have become a tradition for the local community and visiting guests alike. We treasure the opportunity to share in their experience.”
On December 19, Park City Mountain Resort welcomes Santa Claus into Park City as he descends from the top of the mountain down the Town lift. Guests are invited to arrive around 5:30 p.m. to enjoy hot cocoa, cookies, Christmas carols and storytelling. Santa and his reindeer will fly their sled full of goodies onto the Town Lift Plaza around 6:15 p.m.
On December 24, Santa Claus will ski around the mountain during the day and once the sun sets he will lead more than 100 ski and snowboard instructors down the PayDay run during Park City Mountain Resort’s 46th annual traditional torchlight parade. The parade can best be viewed from the Resort Plaza where complimentary hot beverages and cookies will be served.
All holiday activities are complimentary.

Yesterday, I said all I wanted for Chanukah was snow, and someone must have heard me! So far, 3" has fallen, and another 10" to 14" is predicted by Sunday night. I definitely enjoyed the sunshine yesterday, cruising down Upper Werner and Teewinot Gully on the soft, carveable corduroy, but today's weather is SO much better.

Looks like El Nino is here to stay for the winter. The powerful storm that passed through last week left over 3 feet of snow and allowed us to open Lincoln Express, Disney, Jerome Hill, White Pine, The Flume, Mt. Judah, Nob Hill, and Christmas Tree. With the current storm showing up last night and predictions of another 3 feet of snow over the next few days, this weekend's skiing and riding is going to be incredible! If this snow keeps up, we're looking at opening the new Summit Chair later this month
