Park City Mountain Announces Plans to Install New Lift for 2019-20 SEASON 

  • Park City Mountain will install a new fixed grip quad for the 2019-20 season
  • The lift will provide a quicker, more direct route to Canyons Village

Park City Mountain today announced plans to install a new lift in time for the 2019-20 season, pending permits. The fixed grip quad chairlift, named “Over and Out,” will transport guests from a location near the bottom of the Tombstone Express Lift and unload near the top of Sunrise Lift on the front side of the mountain. As the name suggests, this lift will provide a quicker, more direct route for skiers and riders to access Canyons Village from the center of the resort.
