Utah.com | Park City is a Spring Ski Spectacle
Spring in Utah doesn’t mean you need to put your downhill gear away!
The daffodils may be smiling at the doves in the valleys, but up in the mountains, powderhounds continue to shred. Spring in Utah still has a gazillion resort groomers and terrain parks for the half-pipe show offs. OK, you caught us, we’re just jealous that we’re only meh at the butters and grabs.
We Three Kings of Park City Are
Bombing blue squares and securing lift bars. Biffs and loungin’, up on the mountain, comparing our best sitzmarks.
If you need some spring break vacation ideas, spring ski dates or spring events in Utah, look no further than the royal three of Park City. It’s the place to be in case there’s an epic snow dump around Easter. It’s also the place to be when it’s warm enough to take buttery turns in tees. Either way, it’s time to stuff your ski pants (or shorts) pockets with Cadbury Eggs and enjoy spring skiing in Utah.
KSL News | How the past lingers in these Utah ghost towns
The Beehive State is full of complex stories of settlement, some inspiring, some a little unsavory; some tales of grit and perseverance turned to boom and bust. During the 1800s and early 1900s, settlers flocked to Utah hoping for religious freedom, agricultural opportunities and mining and railroad riches.
But towns that sprang up overnight were sometimes abandoned just as quickly. Even after people left and moved on, the crumbling streets and cemeteries whisper with echoes of the past. Some even say the spirits of former residents linger in these abandoned towns across Utah.
Utah.com | Utah Has the Nerdiest Landscape
We’ve got some cosplay ideas that fit right in with Utah’s scenery.
Utah is the land of canyons and costumes, rockhounders and role-players, dunes and dungeon masters, fossils and fandom. It’s where you’ll find both the densest concentration of Jurrasic-era bones and the densest concentration of … nerds?! Oh yes. Last year, Utah was dubbed theeeee nerdiest state.
The land of geologic wonder being filled to the brim with fables, lore, science-fiction, paranormal encounters and outer space spectators kind of makes sense. Utah is so covered in alien landscapes and otherworldly marvels, why wouldn’t it be the place where imaginations run wilder than outlaws in slot canyons?
Bust out your harnesses, ‘cause we’re about to descend deep into Utah’s Nerd Canyon, where the lingo is the same as any other Utah outdoor adventure. “Boom! Kapow! Wham! Blam! Wow!” OK, Nerd Canyon isn’t a real place, but it should be.
