SNODIVA JETSET

Diva Utah
GOES TO
Divas, if there’s one thing about this sport we all love, it’s
that it’s full of surprises. From running into the darkhaired
cutie from high school at après to discovering
that fat boards make you ski like a queen, every ski day
holds its share of unexpected delights.
Do it, Diva Hit the woods at Utah’s Deer
Valley. If a charming Brit with the smile and grace
of Prince Harry invites you into the trees for a ski,
don’t hesitate, Diva. Jump — no, leap — at the
opportunity!
16 THE TRAVEL ISSUE 2008
Go to Utah, Diva Go for the dry snow,
the blue skies and the bright, blinding sunshine.
At Park City, divas ski all three: The Canyons, Park
City and Deer Valley. All are completely different
in terrain, ambiance… even scenery.
An Inside Tip, Diva One-plank sisters
are not welcome in Deer Valley… it’s for skiers only.
But, surprise — it’s one absolutely fahbulous
destination for tree skiing. This ultra-luxe ski area,
known for its perfectly groomed runs and valet
parking, also has magnifi cent woods that hold fresh
powder long after the last snowfall.
AN ABSOLUTE MUST, DIVA
After a gorgeous day in the woods of Deer Valley, indulge
mid-mountain in one (or maybe two) of Deer Valley’s Royal
Street Café’s astoni shing Blueberry Mojitos. The mix of all those
sugary berries with the mint of the Cuban drink will loosen
your stiffening legs and up, up, up your spirit!
For the recipe, search “mojito” on skipressworld.com

Diva’s Utah Bonus The town of Park
City — a weird and wonderful mix of western ski
town and cosmopolitan city — sits at the base of
The Canyons, Park City and Deer Valley. Jetset
snodivas will want to stop for a bite at Robert
Redford’s Zoom, more for the kick than the
culinary art. For better eats, Divas go to 350 Main
Street, named the best restaurant in Park City.
Seafood-loving divas will adore the buffet at the
Deer Valley Park Lodge. Main Street in Park City
offers chic shopping and breathless nightlife. The
feel is more Sex and the City than Big Love.

mega Mountain Center. Go for
Rossi’s brand new 1907 line —
celebrating a century of skidom’s
