PARK CITY — Park City Mountain Resort and its ski patrol have reached a tentative agreement.
Late Tuesday night, the resort and the Park City Professional Ski Association released a joint statement announcing that a tentative agreement had been reached through April of 2027.
"The union's bargaining committee is unanimously endorsing ratification by its unit with a vote scheduled to take place (Wednesday)," the two sides said. "The tentative agreement addresses both parties' interests and will end the current strike."
Nearly 200 ski patrollers went on strike Dec. 27 after months of negotiation between the Park City Professional Ski Patrol and Park City Mountain's parent company, Vail Resorts. The ski patrol called for better wages and working conditions.
The resulting strike has resulted in extremely long lift lines over the holiday season and a lot of negative publicity from out-of-town skiers.
"Everyone looks forward to restoring normal resort operations and moving forward together as one team," the statement says.
