Run Highlights
-
Aplande | Blue Square
Off Apex, the spruce- and aspen-lined Aplande, is a double blue square dip across the shadowy face. It holds some great powder and, as you pick up speed, delivers you onto the sunnier Lower Boa for the cruise home.
-
Boa | Blue Square
Since it doesn't see as much traffic as other parts of the mountain, Boa (approximately 1,780 vertical feet) at Canyons Resort is a long, winding blue. It’s a bit of a well-kept secret despite being a great long cruiser.
-
Fool’s Paradise | Black Diamond
Because it’s all the way at the other end of the resort, Fool’s Paradise is often hoarding the best snowfall and has the fewest people on a powder day. Accessed by the Dreamcatcher lift, the trail zips through an aspen grove and offers some breathtaking tree skiing at a moderate pitch.
-
Motherlode Meadows | Black Diamond
A well-kept secret, Motherlode Meadows off the Motherlode lift provides opportunities for skiers and riders to explore different lines by lapping the Meadows, getting the best of the long-lasting powder stashes.
-
Prospector | Blue Square
Just off the Silverlode lift sits Prospector, one of PCMR’s 13 Signature Runs: black diamond or double-blue runs that are groomed regularly, though not every day. It also happens to be one of the steeper pitches on the mountain. Take the Silverlode lift to Parley’s Park to Prospector, and at the end, you can do it all over again.
-
Upper Apex to Apex | Blue Square
A beautiful ridgeline running down the north mountain with multiple opportunities to up your game.
-
Run Tip
Warm up on the Payday/Town and Silverlode/Bonanza lifts, or if you're an intermediate to expert skier, head straight for the sweet stuff up Jupiter, Motherlode and McConkey’s.

Park City
Park City is the perfect mountain town. The winter slopes were once featured in the Olympics, and in summer the mountains and nearby state parks and reservoirs transform into a hiking, mountain biking, fishing and camping mecca.
