Interested in spending ski season at the Canyons in Park City, Utah? The Canyons, with an average of 355" of snow, is the largest single ski and snowboard resort in Utah and one of the five largest in the United States and four months in the Park City Waldorf Astoria sounds like a great opportunity.
Visit HowDoYouMountain.com to share how they “mountain” for a chance to land “The Ultimate Mountain Gig” and spend the entire season as their VIP guest and resident blogger.
In this newly created role, the person chosen for the “Ultimate Mountain Gig” will live at The Waldorf Astoria Park City located at Canyons for the ultimate mountain experience from January through April. They will post several blogs per week in hopes of inspiring others to find their own ways to mountain.
“We are evolving here at Canyons away from acting like the typical ski resort,” states Todd Burnette, Vice President of Marketing, “and are becoming a true year round mountain destination. We believe the reasons why guests come to our mountains have evolved as well. So we created this position not only to give an insiders perspective to our resort and all of our new enhancements, but to also show others the diversity of what it means to mountain today and to motivate them to find out how to do it for themselves.”
The selected candidate will be paid a $40,000 salary, live for free in a suite at the new Waldorf Astoria Park City, and receive head-to-toe ski or board gear, a season pass to the mountain as well as VIP access to all of Canyons events, spa treatments, and other love-of-the-mountains necessities such as access to Canyons Club, First Tracks, heli-skiing, and ski school and avalanche training clinics. In addition, they will be given use of computer and camera equipment needed to verbally, as well as visually, capture the experience.
