Picture this...It is May 1872 and George and Rhonda Snyder break through the forest (just behind where the Yarrow is now) to behold an incredibly beautiful mountain valley. George exclaims, "it looks like a park." Thus the name Park City. As the first July 4th rolled around and with few provisions, Rhonda took old clothes and a baby blanket and stitched together an American Flag. Come July 4th, 1872 Park City celebrated Independence day for the first time. Now mind you, there weren't very many people, but those Mormons knew how to put together a real feast and still do. :)
Thank you to the pioneers. Thank you to the Indians that once lived here. Thank you Abraham Lincoln. It was all you did that gave us this great little town that is 'heaven on earth.' THE REPUBLIC OF PARK CITY. :) Finally, thank you locals. People all over the world talk about how friendly you are. You give Park City a great name. FASTAXI loves PARK CITY
