Park City Mountain has at least 325 acres of terrain in the resort open. Fresh snow and snowmaking have made it possible. UPDATED

Park City Mountain, the largest lift-served ski and snowboard resort in the United States, opened on Friday, Nov. 22 for the 2024/25 winter season with around 325 acres of terrain on offer.

Mountain access is available from both Mountain Village and Canyons Village base areas.

The resort is poised to open additional early season terrain in Canyon’s Village thanks to a new snowmaking enhancement project on Another World and Chicane.

“The start of the ski and ride season is a celebration our guests, community and team members look forward to each year,” said Park City Mountain Vice President and Chief Operating Officer, Deirdra Walsh.

“We are incredibly excited to welcome everyone back for the 2024/25 season on Friday.

“I have immense gratitude for our entire Park City Mountain team, whose dedication, passion, and hard work have made this all possible.

“We have so much to look forward to this season — new snowmaking enhancements at Canyons Village will give us access to favorite runs earlier than ever, a welcoming and inclusive lineup of events across both base areas, and some new fun surprises planned for guests to enjoy.”
