The author reflects on their inaugural trip to Salt Lake City and Park City during peak winter season, realizing the challenges faced by a non-skier. The bustling crowds, particularly in ski-centric areas, overwhelmed the experience, leading to considerations for future visits during shoulder seasons. Additionally, the traveler regretted insufficient packing, particularly for winter clothing, emphasizing the importance of preparedness for the climate. Their mixed feelings arise from the beautiful winter scenery juxtaposed with the realities of peak tourism, leading to valuable lessons for subsequent trips.
As a first-time visitor to Salt Lake City and Park City, I thought seeing the mountains blanketed in snow would be nice - and it really was.
I didn’t realize just how busy it would be. Park City was packed with winter sports enthusiasts.
Maybe seeing the snow was worth the crowds - I won't know for sure until I visit during another season.
Had I realized I’d be visiting during the busiest time of year, I would have likely pushed my trip to the spring.
