Above: Views from the ridge looking back to Park City

The highly anticipated Quicksilver Gondola was installed this summer and is now open! The connection between Park City Mountain Resort and Canyons creates the biggest ski resort in the United States, offering 40 lifts, 314 runs and 7,300 acres of skiable terrain.

We took a couple laps on Friday and we would have to say the new gondola connection is pretty cool. The views are amazing and its surprising how quick you can get to the gondola from the Park City side. A simple quick ride up the Crescent chairlift, then down to the bottom of Silverlode, which is the home of the gondola’s Park City side base.

Here is a great mountain bike ride I would recommend to anyone looking for a long and fun loop. This recommended ride starts with Jenni's Trail at Park City Ski Resort. Jenni's heads up to Mid-Mountain Trail. Then you'll come back down the very fun and fast Deer Crest Trail.

The photo below is from the recently built and popular Jenni's Trail at Park City ski resort. This trail begins at the bottom of the resort near the first time ski lift. You can park at the base parking lots of Park City resort. The trail works its way up hill, all across the ski runs under some of the ski lifts and ends near the top drop off point of the town ski lift. Jenni's is a good upward climb, rarely levels off so its a bit of a grind but not too rocky or difficult. It…
