Park City Spending $10.5 Million in Upgrades for 2008-2009 Ski Season


By utah_ski_vacation - Posted on 28 July 2008

Now that the snow has melted, Park City Mountain Resort is working on a number of improvements to the resort infrastructure. These projects are scheduled to be completed for the 2008-2009 Ski Season:

* A NEW high-speed detachable lift that will greatly improve access out of the Resort's base area. The new lift, replacing and realigning the current Ski Team lift, will take guests from the Resort's base area to the top of Crescent Ridge.

* Terrain enhancements to improve the skiing/riding experience on the mountain, including a new run and expanded snowmaking.

* Renovation of the Mid-Mountain Lodge.

* Park City Mountain Resort will be purchasing 100% Renewable Energy Credits (RECs) beginning in June of 2008 to offset all of the Resort's power consumption. The purchase of 13.9 million kWh of RECs will avoid nearly 19 million pounds of CO2 emissions annually, which is equal to removing 1,853 passenger vehicles from the road or powering 1,100 average American homes for a year.

Visit Park City Mountain Resort on your next ski vacation, and enjoy the improvements and the clean mountain air.
