Over the years, Deer Valley skiers have moved away from the Mayflower area of Bald Mountain to Empire Mountain. Perhaps this trend is due to the greater visibility Empire enjoys, while Mayflower is largely hidden from skiers’ view. This is also what makes it a heaven for powder hounds and skiers in the know.

Carving Skis, Powder Skis and Skis In Between
I often look at my ski rack and wonder what I could change to make skiing even more fun and a little easier. In other words, which ski do I really need? This basic question conjured up so many parameters that just one simple answer seemed totally impossible. But I was determined to find out
Ski All Day with New Technology in Women’s Skis
I want to ski the entire day. I’d love to be the girl who is racing to get on that last chair before the lift closes. I haven’t been able to do it yet, though. The excuse I give myself for coming in early is I live here now and have a season pass so
Skiing the X-Files is just like Stand-Up Comedy
I’ve been fantasizing about skiing the X-Files since JF Lanvers posted a series of blogs (with video!) about this mysterious tree run in Empire Canyon. I knew it would be fun, if I could work up the nerve—I didn’t realize that skiing it would mark a major milestone in my life. Of course, it goes

There are only 16 days left until we open…but who’s counting! We kick off the season on December 4 and will be hosting the Celebrity SkiFest on Birdseye ski run. I will be one of the Pros competing in the race. The event will air on December 5 on CBS at 5pm EST. There is
I Ski For Lunch- Part 1
This is not the last time you will read that particular line in my posts. I often say that the cookies at Deer Valley, consumed at lunch on my first ski trip to Park City, were a deciding factor in our plan to move here. Letty Flatt, Deer Valley’s inspired executive pastry chef, and her
The Equipment Quandary
It all started in September; I have been wracking my brain ever since trying to figure out which ski I should get for this snow season. Now, I seem to be running out of time as I still have not figured out which set of boards I should pick. I’m not talking about any specific
October Snow
How much things can change in a week! I unexpectedly woke up to the sound of snow plows the last week and thought maybe it was a bit premature. However as I looked out the window, sure enough the rain hard turned to snow over night. I probably had almost 4 inches in the driveway.
