Why You Should Wait Till a Powder Day to Do Park City’s Murdock Peak Hike

A run down the expert Murdock Peak area, via the High Peak trail, on Park City's Canyons side. Getting to this above-treeline area—one of the few at Park City—requires a 15-30 minute hike from the top of the Super Condor Express chairlift. The bowl exists at the far end of the Canyons side and can take up to 2.5 hours to travel to from the Park City side base.

Unfortunately, conditions on the day of this run were less-than-ideal. Run recorded March 2021.

Park City Mountain Resort is a ski resort located in Park City, UT, about an hour east of Salt Lake City. See our full mountain review here.
