| A lifetime of skiing accomplishments and contributions of Phil Jones, born in 1939, is enshrined in a ski run atop Park City Mountain Resort named Jonesy’s. It serves as a lasting tribute to Phil’s 33 years of dedicated employment at the resort, including 16 years as president and general manager during its era of great expansion.
A native of Twin Falls, Idaho, Jones’s storied skiing career started at Magic Mountain, a ski area near his hometown, owned and operated by his father. His acclaimed credentials touched every aspect of the sport: racer, ski instructor, ski school director, PSIA Interski demonstration team member in 1965 in Bad Gastein, Austria, and 1968 in Aspen, Colorado, PSIA chief examiner and certification chairman, and PSIA-Intermountain officer. In 1968 he was designated a Lifetime Member of PSIA-Intermountain. Jones was a member of the Utah Tramway Board, president of the Utah Ski Association, vice-chairman of the National Ski Areas Association, and co-founder of the Veteran Ski Instructors Alliance. Park City’s ski run named Jonesy’s will always serve as a legacy of the lasting contributions Phil Jones has made to the sport of skiing. |
