I am in Park City for the weekend because we just started site works for Parkview Mountain House (PMH).
When you’re building in the mountains, there are generally two types of sites: sites that are uphill from the road and sites that are downhill from the road.
The latter is significantly harder to build on because you have to first create access to the lot, which means bringing in soil and creating a ramp. You may also end up craning in materials.
Thankfully, our site is on the uphill side. You bring in an excavator, dig into the mountain, and then you have a flat workable site.
That’s what we’re doing on site right now and it’s what you’re seeing above — a big hole in the side of a mountain. And it’s pretty exciting.
