Looks like I have booked a trip for 8 days of the Sundance Film Festival and boarding for my 34th birthday. Staying at the Marriott Mountainside.
Any info on some good runs, good bars, cheap lift tickets or different mountains int he area I need to hit up would be much appreciated.
So far, its 3 guys (me included) and 6 girls in one of the large suites.....good times and lots of pictures will be taken. Last year, my buddy who is setting up this trip sat in the hot tub with Eva Mendez smoking as J with her.
Anyone in the area is more then welcome to come hang, ride, drink or whatever. _________________

Everywhere in Park City is awesome. Be ready for some crowds though. The social life at that time will probably be rediculous b/c of the festival (of course). The hills will be packed. Try to stay away from the idiots that don't know what they're doing... One of my friends threw out is back after some idiot who "wasn't sure how to stop" ran into him. |

during sundance is a good time to hit the mountain though, everyone's in town!! park city does have a lot of people who don't know what they're doing but i think that's true of any mountain. once you get up to the tougher runs the chance of getting run into gets much smaller. the canyons is a good one for snowboarding too, and it's huge. you definitely need to block out a day to take the gondola all the way across the mountain and explore its runs. every time i've ridden canyons though, it's been pretty busy, and the prep work doesn't seem as good as PC. lots of ice and slush, you never know what you're going to hit. at least that's been my experience. i only rode canyons two or three days last season though so it could have just been a fluke. Deer Valley has the best prep and awesome runs, but it's ski only. _________________ click to see my most recent photo set

awesome info guys, thanks. Yea me and the the other two guys plan on getting to the bowls and black runs as soon as possible to avoid the scrubs. Been picking up some new stuff, so I am pumped. I missed last season cause og a new job, so I am really pumped this year.
The canyons sound good if it's not slush, I have heard good things about that place. I only board, so looks like I wont be making it too that other mountain. I can only cross my fingers and hope we get some sick snow in late Jan. _________________
