PARK CITY, UTAH – July 29, 2015 (Gephardt Daily) – Vail Resorts makes it official Wednesday…it will combine Utah’s Park City Mountain Resort and Canyons Resort under one name and logo.
Once a connecting lift is built, Park City will be home to one of the largest ski areas in North America.
Official plans to combine the two popular ski resorts were expected ever since Vail bought Park City Mountain Resort in 2014 for $182.5 million.
Plans for the lift were announced in December as part of Vail’s $50 million investment in the two properties.
The mega-resort will also get upgrades to a pair of lifts, some new restaurants and improvements to others, and better snowmaking equipment.
Construction will begin immediately and the projects should be ready for the 2015-2016 ski season.
