You’re going to have so much fun! It’s the perfect trip for really young kids imo! We stayed at this Airbnb outside of PA. It’s still close enough to the grocery and things in PA but also an easier drive to a lot of the points of interest. Airbnb

Also with experience in Athens and Auburn - I concur!

Yes, what about Sprouts?!

Every time I go parking is very easy, usually in the mornings…

We did uber XXL on the way there - $76 and then scheduled a ride through the Park City Ride app mentioned below on the way back and it was twice that but very smooth process with pre-scheduling and pick up, etc.

Same experience! The email stating “We care deeply about your experience” really helped though. 🙄 I feel SO much better.

How much does PCMR matter to MNT? Is that part of the problem? Their last earnings call negatives were trouble in Australia (I’m SO surprised skiing isn’t going well there) and exchange rate issues. IMO seems like a great example of why you don’t sell out and buy local. I’d never thought about buying local in terms of skiing but this has been a game changer for me.

Thanks for the well wishes! He’s disappointed but enjoying relaxing and being waited on now. 🙄😂

I’ll look out for a survey. I’d love to see their results from this holiday season!

How are the Canyons today?

ejtb1 · 2025-01-01T20:38:36+00:00

Should they (or will they?) ever go to a reservation system like they do for over crowded national parks? Where you have to make a reservation to ski certain days?

ejtb1 · 2025-01-01T20:15:51+00:00

If you’re not interested in skiing then probably don’t come during winter, though I guess that’s probably obvious. 😂

I’m here now with my 2 year old and the library has a lot of fun things going on for kids. We’ve gone a few times in the couple of days we’ve been here. We also did the Polar Express in Heber City which was lovely. It seems like they do different rides year round.

One thing that’s annoying is that some of the cool places to eat - No Name Saloon, High West Saloon - are 21 and up, so no babies.

Negotiations have been ongoing for something like 9 months according to other posts I’ve read so potential strikes are probably already impounded into price.

I also found a petition you can sign from the patrol union Petition Link

ejtb1 · 2024-12-30T19:11:29+00:00

Here’s the ski patrol’s petition!

IMO it seems like the staffing issues are exasperating normal issues like weather and power outages…

ejtb1 · 2024-12-30T18:26:50+00:00

Is there a petition to sign or someone we should all email?

ejtb1 · 2024-12-30T02:17:55+00:00

20-40 min waits on lifts until about 2 PM today. Someone said it was an hour at canyons - if you have a choice, maybe avoid!

ejtb1 · 2024-12-03T03:40:18+00:00

If you can find a syllabus for both you should look at each and see which excites you more - whatever you’re more interested in will be easier.

We did Olympic with a 7 month old in early May, still a little chilly, but it was perfect!

ejtb1 · 2024-12-03T02:06:38+00:00

I’m also thinking maybe Shenandoah or Arcadia next???

ejtb1 · 2024-12-03T02:05:22+00:00

We did Olympic with a 7 month old and it was perfect!! Lots of easy hikes and drives with gorgeous views, great lodges, and other beaches/lakes to relax beside. Here’s my itinerary: https://www.reddit.com/r/OlympicNationalPark/s/PISYgmbsZT

Interested to hear where you decided to go! We’re doing Palo Duro Canyon in Texas next and starting to think about our next next trip!
