Sundance Resort Outing

Board a bus at 9:00 a.m. at the Hotel Park City for the 40 minute bus ride to Sundance Resort, which is graced by 5,000 acres of protected wilderness at the base of Utah's 12,000 ft. Mt. Timpanogos. Founded by Robert Redford in 1969, Sundance offers year round mountain recreation, world class dining and shopping for artistic gifts and fine art purchases. Upon arrival, Frogs will be dropped off at the screening room, the original home of the Sundance Film Festival created back in 1985, to view the movie "Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid." Following the movie, lunch will be served in the Screening Room Lobby.

Before heading back to Park City, enjoy free time to roam the grounds, visit the Sundance general store that inspired the Sundance Catalog and take home a bit of the Sundance spirit. Unleash your creative potential by visiting the Sundance Art Shack or relax your mind and listen to the waterfall and stream that flow through the entire property. You will arrive back at Park City between 3 and 3:30 p.m.

Cost: $50 per person (includes bus ride, movie/snacks, and lunch). This event is optional and is not included in any of the packages.
