Jupiter Peak is Open!

— Posted by Eric on January 4, 2009

It was awful chilly this morning so I waited until about 11am to head up to the mountain and boy was it ever worth it!

I thought that I'd get take some nice cruising runs with some bumpers to try to keep warm. But, once I got off Crescent Lift and saw Jupiter Peak looking as if it might be open, I quickly traversed to McConkey's Lift where I found that the "Pearly Gates" were indeed open. From there, I did a quick hike over to Pinyon Ridge where I got in some nice turns while scoping where the real goods were - Puma Bowl. Two laps of Pioneer to Jupiter to High West to Puma and I was a very happy camper - with the pics below to prove it (just Scotts and Pinecone to go!):

I just wanted to say thank you. We were at the Silverstar in Park City from 12/28-1/4. I was able to get the last 2 days in on Jupiter Peak although not fully open. It was great. A reminder why I love coming from Philadelphia to Utah to ski. Also, had my 3 and 4 yr old children in ski school for the first time. They need to improve it some but in 2 days my children went from the carpet to the lift....incredible. thank you again.
