THE CANYONS RESORT
The incredible beauty you saw on NBC's Today show and
Nightly News during the 2002 winter games was The Canyons Resort.
That's because The Canyons was selected as their broadcast center.
Matt Lauer said of his time here, "The Canyons was our Olympic
home away from home. What a great stay. What a great mountain.
What a great resort!"
The Canyons has jumped up rankings
from #22 in 2004 to #14 in 2005 by Ski Magazine. The biggest
jump of rank of any resort in North America. Skiers
looking for The Canyons' terrain park in 2005 will find it
at a higher elevation - providing more consistent natural
snowfall assisted by a new snowmaking system for the park.
Freeskiers and riders will access the new park by Snow Canyon
Express where they will find more than 30 features throughout
the 16-acre park.
Tree skiing gets even better off of The Canyons' Saddleback
Express lift. Skiers and riders will find even more tree skiing
near The Pines, thanks to the thinning of glades. The Pines
is known for deep, untouched powder and plenty-o-trees.
On-mountain dining takes a step up at The Canyons Resort.
Lookout Cabin will now feature a new, full-service bar within
the restaurant -- Located a top Lookout Peak, Lookout Cabin
provides stunning views of the Wasatch along with table-served
meals daily.
