To find out if the three resorts in the Park City, Utah area really do represent “The Greatest Snow on Earth”, we skied and apres-skied and learned first-hand how fabulous the town and it’s amenities have become. Indeed, the area has come a long way from the area’s poor, silver mining history.

During the recent Sundance Film Festival, Park City, Utah was teeming with glittery Hollywood types littering local restaurants and bars, meanwhile abandoning the perfectly powdered slopes. Over the ten-day stretch, those idyllic resort town slopes- located less than an hour’s drive from the Salt Lake City airport, stand virtually empty. It’s an insider secret that the week and a half is ideal for powder junkies hungry for crowd-free runs during high season.

(Good luck finding a hotel room though!) As it turns out Hollywood isn’t so into that kind of snow.

Fortunately out west ski and snowboard season run long. A good year means soft, fluffy snow starts falling just after Thanksgiving until — if you’re really, really lucky — as late as Cinco de Mayo. Utah doesn’t claim “Greatest Snow on Earth” for nothing — the trademarked white stuff maintains a unique blend of “consistency, abundance and quality,” says Ski Utah’s Director of Communications Jessica Kunzer, “Anyone who skis dreams of skiing out west. You might like skiing wherever you’re from originally — if it’s Minnesota, or, out east in Vermont, New Hampshire, New York, [but] the general wish is to experience our soft, ice-free slopes.”

Flagging bookings at many of the finest winter resorts in the country have created a boon for skiers in search of bargains. As the New York Times reports, enticing deals are to be found at such popular — and typically pricey — ski areas as Aspen, Vail, Jackson Hole and Lake Tahoe.

Vail Resorts is providing three nights’ lodging and three days of lift tickets for the cost of two at its four ski areas in Colorado (Vail, Breckenridge, Beaver Creek and Keystone) and Tahoe’s Heavenly Mountain Resort. In Jackson, rates for the four-night Skier’s Dream package at Teton Mountain Lodge & Spa have been reduced by $100 per night. Aspen/Snowmass has partnered with Frontier Airlines to offer a free flight, among other incentives, to group and family travelers. For a blizzard of more special offers, check out ski.com.

Naturally, as I reside in the Middle East, Iall begin writing on everything not related to the desert and the Middle East region. My mind wanders, and with the first snow in the US, itas drifted (pun intended) to snow skiing. I havenat been snowboarding since my teen years, and this is a sad realization [...]

Out west, the mountains may be higher and the resorts bigger, but the Southeast offers some worthwhile ski areas of its own.
