Ski Diva Extraordinaire
Hi all…
After talking it about it for 2 years now, I think we are finally going to get out West (hoping vivid variants don’t interfere with this idea ….again). I have skied out in CO, but it’s been 25+ years & my son (17), who is an avid skier (and Jr Ski Patroller) has been itching to get out there….We are set on skiing Park City & Deer Valley (my son has a friend who works at DV & we have IKON passes & figure if we are in Park City, we should ski there as well). My husband, who doesn’t really ski is coming along as well, but he does not have equipment, so will need to rent. So, here are some of my questions?
-guessing it will be best to rent equipment for my husband at a local shop vs the resorts? Any recommendations from local divas would be appreciated.
-transportation from airport? Do we need a rental car ( I have heard once in PC, there is no need for a car), so wondering if there are shuttle/airport van/limo services or would an Uber be an option?
-My son & I are bringing our skis; thinking of buying a sport tube to fit both sets. Any other travel/packing tips?
-we do know a local family, but would also appreciate any other restaurant recommendations.
Thanks in advance …..
