There are very few places in the world where you can find remote wilderness and a cosmopolitan resort in the same area. Park City is such a place. World-class skiing, fishing, golf, cultural events and night life abound in Park City. In the surrounding area, the rustic, solitary life of farmers and ranchers prevails.

History After a silver rush that spanned two decades, Park City was incorporated in 1884. The city continued to proper as a mining town until 1949, where the mines shut down. In 1958, United Park City Mines began to examine the possibility of turning the company's land into a ski area. Consequently, Treasure Mountain Resort (now known as Park City Mountain Resort) was born. Today, Park City is a unique bled of the old and new. Sixty-four of Park City's buildings are listed on the National Register of Historic Places, many of which are located on Park City's Main Street.
