Silver Star Trails Report-June 2024

As of late May 2024, the lower portions of the Armstrong, Spiro & Dawn’s Trails are in excellent condition. The recent dry spell has made the paths firm and easy to navigate, with minimal mud and debris. Early spring wildflowers are beginning to bloom, adding a splash of color to your journey. However, the higher elevations of the trails still hold quite a bit of snow in shaded areas. As temperatures continue to rise, the snow will melt and the trails will dry out further, providing optimal conditions for all users.
Silver Star Park City’s Armstrong, Dawn’s, and Spiro trails offer a delightful mix of natural beauty, physical challenge, and outdoor fun. Whether you’re hiking or biking, these trails provide the perfect escape into nature, with the added comfort of knowing they are well-maintained and currently in excellent condition. So, lace up your hiking boots or grab your bike helmet and hit the trails – adventure awaits!
Silver Star Lift-Closed For The Season!

As we bid farewell to another remarkable winter season, we reflect on the unforgettable memories made atop the Silver Star ski lift in Park City, Utah. After months of pristine powder, exhilarating runs, and heartwarming moments, Park City Mountain officially closed the Silver Star lift’s operations on April 7th. As the season drew to a close, Park City Mountain, our home base for thrilling ski and snowboard experiences, also shuttered its gates on April 22nd.
While the lift may be closed for now, the memories you’ve created will last a lifetime. From carving through fresh powder to enjoying breathtaking views of the surrounding landscape, each moment atop the Silver Star ski lift was truly special. As we look ahead to the warmer months, we’re already counting down the days until we can get back to the slopes once again. Until then, we encourage you to cherish the memories of this past season and stay tuned for updates on future adventures at Silver Star.
Silver Star Ski & Sport-Mud Season Update

After a thrilling and bustling winter season filled with snow-covered slopes and endless adventures, the team at Silver Star Ski & Sport is ready to take a well-deserved breather as May arrives. Led by their dedicated manager, Todd, their staff will be stepping back from the ski shop for most of this month to recharge and prepare for the exciting summer ahead.
While their doors may not be open for regular business hours during May, fear not! They are still there to assist you with all your ski and snowboard needs as you bid farewell to the winter season. If your gear requires some TLC before being stowed away for the summer, they are available for waxing and tunes to ensure they’re in prime condition for storage.
But that’s not all—the ski shop crew is gearing up for a shift in focus as we transition into summer activities. Dust off your bikes and get ready to hit the trails, because Silver Star Ski & Sport is now offering bike tune-ups to kickstart your summer adventures. From adjusting gears to checking tire pressure, their expert technicians are here to ensure your ride is smooth and safe for the season ahead.
To schedule an appointment for ski or snowboard maintenance or to book a bike tune-up, simply give them a call at the ski shop. Todd and the team will be more than happy to accommodate your needs and get you ready for whatever adventures lie ahead.
As we embrace the changing seasons and eagerly anticipate the warmer days to come, Todd and the crew would like to extend their heartfelt thanks to their loyal customers for their continued support.
