If safety is your main concern, do not pick Park City Peaks. My glasses had frozen while on a tour and I was unable to see, I notified my instructor several times that It did not make sense for me to be last in line because i was falling behind and getting lost. I even fell sideways with the snowmobile off a super powdery hill because i could not see the terain. It was a terrifying experience. I said, hey, either put me somewhere in the middle, or go at like 25 mph which is a speed I can follow safely at. The instructors response was "I'm sorry bud, I got some really good customers up front, come here all the time, I can't let them have a bad trip." Prioritizing a good customer over someone else's safety seems to be the motto at Park City Peaks. I asked to speak to a manager because I wanted to be sure this wouldn't happen to anyone else. I was told they would call me in 30 minutes. Two days later I'm still waiting.
Had a great time! Had prefect sunny days both times allowing miles of Visibility! We took the 2 hour tour the first day with our 4 year old granddaughter. They have a back seat with armrest but didnât quite work for our four year old so she road in front of Grandpa best and held onto handlebars. The first 2 hour trip we did was on fresh powder snow which equated to smoother steering and ride. We enjoyed so much we came back two days later and did the 3 hour tour. With 3 days of sunshine, it caused the snow to compact and harden which was a struggle steering and getting the snow mobiles skids out of previous riders tracks but still doable! Just got a good upper body workout! Took our four year old granddaughter back with us and she did great. Had lunch (chips, sandwiches, candles and water) provided on top of mountain range around 10,000 ft elevation. They even had a porta potty set up for the ladies which helped out after 2 hours of bumpy riding! lol. Both trips had great tour guides which were very professional and personable! They provided whatever you needed as well at no extra cost on both rides. Boots, gloves, helmets, goggles, jackets, pants, bibs or full body snow suits. All adult and children sizes available. If I had one critique, it would be for guides to drive slower of your can enjoy the views more. I felt like we were always driving fast which required you to focus on the road more than the view because a lot of the trails were narrow and had ravines on one side or the other. They did allow people to just take their time though and the guide would come back to check on them to make sure they didnât get lost which was a good thing. Like I said, if you like, driving fast, those opportunities were there, just as much as those who wanted to drive more cautiously! We saw some good wildlife as well. We saw two moose and a bald eagle. Overall had a great time I highly recommended everyone! PS, donât forget to tip...
   Read moreWhat an amazing experience this is! We had a nice group of out-of-towners in to truly experience Utah and how we have fun in the snow, and Thousand Peaks did not disappoint!
First off, itâs clear they run a clean and smooth operation. The welcome lodge is stocked with all the right outerwear and safety gear to protect you from the elements (or yourself) while out on a snowmobile tour. The unisuits are clean, boots are nice and new, and full face helmets are solid and most of all DONâT SMELL like the previous user đˇ.
Our guide, Sperry, was one of the best. We spent a few minutes getting acquainted with the gear and machines, and even though we were a few minutes late he helped us make up for our time by getting us out quickly. One of the guys in our group got foggy goggles, and our guide was quick to pull out a spare pair in an instant and keep us cruising.
The scenery is unmatched. We were so lucky to end up in the upper bowl right after a fresh storm from a day or two earlier, and had 20+ minutes to rip around and have a blast. On that note, I will say itâs worth upgrading to the 600cc machines if youâre one that likes a more responsive feel. That being said, their entire fleet looks brand new, and both the 550cc and 600cc snowmobiles are comfortable and feel top of the line đđź.
Overall a fantastic experience and one I would recommend for anyone visiting Utah, in addition to locals that want to experience something new. Do yourself a favor and skip the crowded lift lines at Park City next storm and come hit these guys up. You wonât be...
