Park City has the greatest snow on earth!  

The high-desert climate of the Wasatch Mountains creates over 350 inches (890 cm) of the best powder in the country. It's based upon having a combination of snow with a relative low moisture content, along with enough ‘body’ to allow you to float through it. This is the gift of storms passing over the Great Salt Lake to the west, resulting in a phenomenon known as the ‘Lake Effect’. Annually, this produces the deepest champagne powder and more accumulation of snow than other western ski resorts. These top ski conditions continue to draw visitors from around the world since the state’s first ski area opened in 1946.

In the winter, temperatures average around 35˚F during the day and 14˚F during the night. You can expect a good amount of overcast skies, snow, and cold. You're advised to bring your warmest jacket, hat, gloves, and scarf, so you are comfortable.  The weather is perfect for all the great winter activities in Park City.

Consider any or all of the following winter adventures: Dog Sledding, Snow Mobiling, Cross-Country Skiing, Ice Skating, Snow Shoeing, Sleigh Riding, Snow Tubing & Sledding.

Adventure Awaits!

Utah Olympic Park remains an important training center. Admission to the park is free. There are several museums on site.
