  • As winter settles in for the Northern hemisphere and the holiday season is just around the corner, we thought we would head to a ski resort for the last tall story of the year.

  • And what better than Deer Valley Resort, where typical American grandeur is on display throughout this man made landscape?

  • You're listening to Tall Stories, a monocle production brought to you by the team behind the Urbanist.

  • I'm Andrew Tuck.

  • In this episode, Jessica Bridger straps on her skis and takes us up the mountain in Utah.

  • I want to tell you a fairy tale about the vaster wilds.

  • But it's real.

  • This is a story in three parts.

  • Part 1 Once Upon a Time, you're floating in an outdoor hot tub on the covered balcony of your hotel room.

  • There's snow falling just beyond the roofline.

  • You're at high altitude in Utah, 2,500 meters.

  • You're in a lodge.

  • The word lodge speaks volumes.

  • A refuge, log cabins.

  • The American west manifests destiny.

  • A big wilderness.

  • Seldom anyone encountered the vaster wilds.

  • Places you can actually get lost in.

  • But this is luxury.

  • This is the Stein Ericsson Lodge.
