The Colony at White Pine Canyon is the largest gated ski-in / ski-out community in the United States. Our land spans 4600 acres, and approximately 90% of it will always be preserved as open space.

In winter, enjoy exclusive ski and snowboard access to one of North America’s largest mountain resorts, Park City Mountain. In spring, the snow melts to reveal an amazing network of hiking, biking, and horseback riding trails, connecting to more than 400 miles of single-track trails throughout the surrounding area.

The Colony is just 35 minutes from Salt Lake International Airport and 5 minutes to Park City’s historic Main Street, home to the Sundance Film Festival and world-class dining and shopping.

Coming up this week, our state celebrates a uniquely Utah holiday. Pioneer Day celebrates the day when Mormon pioneers entered the Salt Lake valley in 1847 and declared “This is the place!”

And whether you descend from those pioneers or not, and celebrate the holiday as Pioneer Day or Pie & Beer Day, we can all agree that we’re lucky to live here and that this really is the [best] place! With that in mind, here’s a look at what’s happening this weekend. (Featured photo courtesy Bret O Photography, LLC)

International Summer Film Series: The March of the Penguins
6:30 PM @ Jim Santy Auditorium at Park City Library
Every Tuesday, Park City Film and the library are offering a free film (and popcorn!) as part of the School Break Film Series. This week, come see the The March of the Penguins. At the end of each Antarctic summer, the emperor penguins of the South Pole journey to their traditional breeding grounds in a fascinating mating ritual that is captured in this documentary by intrepid filmmaker Luc Jacquet. The journey across frozen tundra proves to be the simplest part of the ritual, as after the egg is hatched, the female must delicately transfer it to the male and make her way back to the distant sea to nourish herself and bring back food to her newborn chick.
