Today, Monday 9th January was a ski day at Utah’s Park City ski area. Normally this is one of the most reliable ski areas for snow but right now it is struggling. A lot of the trails were closed, not just because the odd rock was showing but because the whole hillside was bare of snow!
Took a few photos, subtle tones between Aspens and snowy ski trails showed up well from above. Saw a sign saying Kodak photo point but with a closed sign on it. A bit ironic as Kodak are in serious financial problems which may close the company, permanently !
We stayed with Butch and Melissa, relatives of Annie and Rob, our friends from Boulder who were accompanying us on this trip, as well as putting up with us at their home. We were very well looked after at their ranch home on the Wyoming / Utah border.
Managed to find a hotel just north of Park City that is easy walking distance from a brewery. The Oatmeal Stout was okay but a bit bland.
Tomorrow we ski Deer Valley. They have twice the depth of snow compared to Park City. Fingers crossed it’s good!
