When I was a little girl I was an avid skier. Living in New England we had a lot of opportunities to ski frequently. My father even went so far as to buy me my own cross country skis, even though I definitely preferred downhill skiing! I haven’t been in SO long, but it doesn’t mean I still don’t dream of going all the time. We’re about 7 hours from the nearest decent ski resort, which I would love to take my son to, so that he can learn how to ski as well! Another place I would love to take him to came to me via Mom Central. It is called Park City Mountain Resort and in one word it is simply awesome. It is located in Park City, Utah which is home to some of the best skiing in the United States if you ask my opinion. New England skiing was fun, but it was icy! There wasn’t the large powdered snow that you find in places such as Utah, Colorado and such. Just in the past 72 hours they have had 22 inches of new fresh ready to ski snow! Gosh, I’m literally drooling at the thought. They have over 3,300 acres to find fresh powder on and more so, they have runs for all ages and abilities which is why they have been named a top 10 family resort consistently through the years.

In fact, they even have several articles dedicated to the “Park City Mountain Resort’s Insider’s Guide to the Ultimate Family Winter Vacation” with articles written by moms about everything from ski lessons for children to family friendly restaurants.

As their website says –
