Huntsman Deer Valley Estate Could Be Developed

By diana

Apr 25, 2013

The Huntsman Family Estate located in Deer Valley on 60 acres stretching between Marsac Avenue and Royal Street is being considered for development. This grand piece of Deer Valley real estate has been on the market since 2009, and includes a 20,000 square foot luxury home.

The family and its partner are now wanting to develop the Deer Valley land instead of selling it. They are considering several development options, including one that would include a few luxury homes and another one that envisions building townhouses or duplexes in a clustered layout. Since Deer Valley has begun exploring the possibility of building a gondola linking the ski slopes and Main Street, the potential for building the development has increased.

Deer Valley hasn't released any detail about the route but the Huntsman estate could be a critical piece of land as the gondola is finalized. If the estate is used for a midway station it would provide ski-in ski-out access to numerous homeowners. Deer Valley has said the gondola could debut for the 2014-2015 ski season at the earliest.

By diana

Feb 05, 2013

Park City skiers Alex Schlopy and Joss Christensen earned silver and bronze medals at the Paul Mitchell Progression Session Big Air Event at Park City Mountain Resort, this past week. Schlopy and Christensen are both natives of Park City and they both attended the Winter Sports School in Park City.

Skiers performed two jumps during the slopestyle event, with the best overall score counting in the medal standings. It was a windy day at Park City Mountain Resort and both skiers had to adjust their decisions on what tricks to perform at the last minute. Both said they were happy to be home after the X Games competition the week prior.

Congrats to these exceptional Park City athletes!
