Sunday was another bluebird sky day at Snowbird. Staying at the ski area made for an easy commute to the slopes. We took the aerial tram up the 3,000 foot rise to the top. Snowbird has made a number of improvements in the last several years including new high speed lifts and the addition of a mountain top dining facility called the Summit. The warm condition made for great spring skiing. the south facing slopes such as Mineral Basin were preferred in the morning, with great groomer skiing. As the day progressed we skied all the lifts throughout the mountain. Snowbird had a unique tunnel which is served by a magic carpet that take you through the mountain from one side to the other. Along the way is a museum full of old photos showing the history of the area.

Our Mountain Collective ski pass is good at both Snowbird and Alta. We plan to ski Alta later this week.
After skiing we made the 45 minute drive to Park City and checked in at the St. Regis Deer Valley, a great place if we may say so. Our initial stay has two benefits, our relatives Les and Jen Seely will be meeting us and staying several days and we are attending the Cushman & Wakefield Capital Markets Summit which is being attended by about 125 real estate professionals.
