A strike by the ski patrol at Park City Resort, North America’s largest ski area by acreage, has disrupted operations for more than a week during the peak season. The strike, involving 200 patrol members and mountain safety staffers, has led to the closure of a majority of the Utah resort, impacting visitors and resort management alike.
Mediated talks between Vail Resorts, the owner of Park City Resort, and the Park City Professional Ski Patrol Association have been ongoing for 10 months without significant progress. The union, seeking better wages and benefits, has not yet reached an agreement to end the strike.
