Word spread that Jupiter was opening yesterday and people began to line up and wait for patrol to give the signal. As mountain patrol dropped the rope, our guests came speeding down Jupiter Access to be the first to get a taste of the soft, powdery snow waiting for them in Jupiter Bowl. Excitement was in the air, hooting and hollering could be heard from the lift and high fives were given at the bottom. It was a perfect bluebird day with powder turns. What more could you ask for?
Here are some of the comments from our guests:
"Best day of the year. Blue skies, fresh snow. brand new terrain. It was awesome."
"This is awesome. Jupiter is open, there's pow, untouched tracks."
"It's really good up there. Nice and deep, it's what we've been waiting on. Thank you Park City patrol, everybody. We appreciate it."

Andy has skied the Park City area for 20 years, and is excited to finally be a full-time PC resident and call Park City Mountain Resort his home mountain.
Originally from the Pocono’s of Pennsylvania, Travis found his way to Park City three years ago and is now our grooming manager. When not in snowcat you can find him skiing or snowmobiling in the Utah backcountry or enjoying the skiing here at Park City Mountain Resort.
What a great birthday present! Can't wait to be there in 9 days!

How is Tycoon at the top of McConkey's? Rocks on the last hill above the lift?
