Montage Deer Valley Launches 2014-2015 Winter Season Offerings

Located on Deer Valley ski mountain, one of the top-rated ski destinations in the country, the luxury resort affords unparalleled ski-in/ski-out access. More than 200 acres of gladed terrain surround the resort and are easily reached by three high-speed chairlifts: the Empire Express, Ruby Express and the Lady Morgan Express. The resort also offers a 'Ski with a Pro' experience, pairing guests with Olympian Shannon Bahrke for a day on the slopes. For the truly ambitious, an Interconnect Adventure Tour allows guests to ski six resorts in one day.

But even for guests who are not skiers, there's plenty to entertain with Montage Deer Valley's Winter Wonders Guide. Thirty après-ski offerings can be booked through the hotel's Concierge, including cross-country skiing, snowshoeing, tubing, ice-skating, snowmobiling, dog sledding and train rides. Guests can also visit nearby Utah Olympic Park to watch top athletes train in Nordic jumping, bobsled, luge and skeleton. Blue-ribbon fly fishing is another non-skiing option available to guests throughout the winter months along the nearby Provo, Green and Weber rivers.

Compass Sports, the resort's year-round activities center, assists with every aspect of exploring the outdoors, such as customizing ski equipment to conditions and abilities, purchasing lift tickets, booking lessons, waxing skis and warming up boots before guests hit the slopes.

"The biggest question every ski resort gets is, 'What is there to do if you don't ski?'" said Allen Highfield, general manager of Montage Deer Valley. "Our team at Compass Sports is prepared to help every guest get the most out of a winter getaway, whether they ski or not."

Indoors, guests can escape the elements at Spa Montage, the state's largest full-service spa offering dozens of invigorating treatments, including the new 'Elements of Wellness' spa retreats. Children can also find respite at Paintbox, the resort's activities center for children ages 5 - 12 offering both half- and full-day educational programming, from cooking and science to art and nature exploration. Guests who view shopping as a true winter sport can enjoy boutique shopping along historic Main Street, as well as the Tanger Premium Outlets and the City Creek Center in Salt Lake City.
