Summer Trails Overview
400 MILES OF SINGLETRACK
Park City trails are open to hiking/trail-running, mountain biking and equestrian trail users. Ranging in altitude from 6,500’ to nearly 10,000’, the trail system spans the whole environmental scale. In a single excursion, trail users can experience everything from high-desert covered in sagebrush, mountain mahogany and rabbit brush to the archetypal high-altitude alpine environment.
Park City has been recognized by the International Mountain Biking Association (IMBA) as the first Gold Level Ride Center in the world and continues to share that status with five other destinations. Both the Mid Mountain trail and the 26-mile, Park City Epic- Armstrong & Pinecone combined with the Wasatch Crest & Mid Mtn, are recognized as IMBA Epic rides.
June – November
The season for alpine trails typically begins in June and runs through early November. Snowpack and rate of spring melt significantly impact the accessibility of trails above 7,000’. Trail crews must wait until trails are dry before they can begin clearing winter blow-downs and making necessary, post-winter repairs. Trails in the lower-lying areas of Park City, such as Round Valley and Glenwild dry out and can be accessible up to six weeks earlier than on-mountain trails.
Weather
Utah is known for dynamic and severe weather, especially on the Wasatch Back. During summer months, temperatures can vary as much as 40 degrees in a single day. Summer storms, though typically brief, often cause sudden downpours of heavy rain/hail with temperatures plummeting 25+ degrees and are usually accompanied by lightning. Keep an eye on the sky. If thunderheads begin to develop it is wise to get off the mountain quickly.

Happy Monday Park City!
This is your daily MTF grooming report,
It is a frigid morning, but round Valley is too thin to drag groom any longer until we get more snow. If you are planning on going out there, try to get out early before the mud hits. Nobody likes ruts.
Bonanza is getting a fresh Nordic groom this morning with classic laid where possible. Single track got a little drifted in, but is still visible and is as solid as a rock.
There is no Bonanza Shuttle today.

Happy Sundance Sunday folks!
January 25 grooming update for ya:
Bonanza is staying cool this morning, kicking off at about 9 degrees at 8:30am, the Matt-tastic-Matt is giving the Bonanza Nordic system a grooming refresh, yes with classic in the usual spots. He's noted that the light is a bit flat right now @8:30am, not sure if the clouds are sticking around today or not, so think about low light lenses if you're heading up there. There has been a bit up wind up there as well, so keep that in mind when choosing your layers! Also, yes, the Bonanza Winter Shuttle is in action today.

The Bonanza single track should still be in a pretty darn good shape, minus a few spots here and there that maybe be challenging, but when things are this firm and cold, not much we can really do at this point to fix things. Just please be aware of your impact up there as conditions may change, #rutssuck! Earlier the better, for single track, always!
Round Valley has been on the downward spiral all week, this morning we did our final drag groom of what's left of Round Valley Express. Until we get more snow down low, we're going to leave Round Valley "as-is" for now.
Round Valley single track is... is a mixture of firm snow in place, icy in places, dry dirt and dirt that can quickly turn to peanut buttery mud if the tempts get high enough. In short, RV single track is in that spring time phase of being basically a mess right now. As stated above, please only be out on the single track when its frozen, which typically means earlier in the morning.
Whether you are enjoying the groomed surfaces or watching films today, we hope you have a great day!

Morning all,
This is the daily grooming report for Jan 24th 2026.
Round Valley got one of its last scrapings down Round Valley Express until more weather rolls in. We will be scoping it out tomorrow as well. If you are planning on going out into the valley today, we say to get out on it early while it’s still frozen.
Bonanza picked up a dusting of snow last night and is reported to be about 9 degrees @8am and is getting a Nordic groom this morning with classic set where possible.
The single track up there was in decent shape with some challenging spots, but pretty good overall and though it is a trek to get up there, it is well worth it.
The Bonanza Shuttle will be running today.

Happy Friday Park City!
This is your daily grooming report for Jan 23rd 2026.
Round Valley is icy and thin with only Round Valley Express getting a drag lap today and there are a few holes it that as well along the back of the NAC as well as a few spots in the inner valley. We plan to keep scraping the surface until we don’t have a connection to the Quinn’s area. We will see what tomorrow looks like.
Bonanza is getting a grooming lap this morning with classic set in appropriate areas. Single track should be good and firm but could potentially soften later this afternoon.
The Bonanza Shuttle is running today!
