Blackhawk: Life through a Lens
Ski and See in Park City, Utah By Sonia Lamba, Resident since 2015

ark City is home to Deer Valley, Park City Mountain Resort and the Canyons. Park City has a lively and exciting history. It started off as a silver mining town, then a ski resort and now a luxury destination. My family and I celebrated the holidays skiing and exploring this quaint town. For a non-skier like me, there is just as much magic off the mountain. It was Deer Valley that got my attention. Besides boasting being United States best ski resort, I was impressed with its most sophisticated and lavish digs: Saint Regis and Montage. Both offer ski-in/ski-out access to the most gorgeous mountains with spectacular views. These are perfect examples of luxury atop ski- mountains. I fell in love with Park City’s colorful, cheerful, walkable Historic Main Street with many art galleries, one-of-a-kind boutiques, souvenir stores and cozy cafes. In the evening the place is buzzing with apres ski activities. I also had an enjoyable visit browsing through the Alf Engen Ski Museum at Utah Olympic Park showcasing the regions rich skiing history. I am sure my Blackhawk Living Magazine Community has some interesting snowy adventures and favorite ski destinations to share too. Have a great ski season!

Sonia Lamba As an amateur photographer, I have always loved taking beautiful photos of my friends and family, nature and travels. After having a fulfilling career in finance in New York, I moved to California in 2014 where my love for photography turned into an invigorating passion. The mountains, valleys, flowers, water and parks never looked so captivating before. I look for vibrant colors and different shades of life. I love capturing anything that intrigues and inspires me. Moving to gorgeous Blackhawk has further enriched and blossomed my love for the camera. I take my camera everywhere, regardless of how short the distance is. Knowing me, there is always a photo opportunity!
