Founded the Sundance film festival.

Legend.

And developed the resort

Beautiful. Great skiing too.

We are getting a step closer to the edge of the cliff every day ladies and gents.

Act accordingly.

@MiketheSnow How dear is it?

Was very reasonable

Not as dear as Deer Valley but I only went for day trips

I was based in Park City

I’ve heard Park City has plenty of good terrain?

"For a moment I thought we were in trouble."

One of the greatest ever film endings. Rest well, Mr Redford.

Yeah it’s pretty good

Now a big area as it’s linked to The Canyons

I preferred Snowbasin (Olympic downhill venue) and Powder Mountain about an hour or so north out of Ogden

Bovidae

I was intending to do a re-watch of Spy Game and Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid. This settles it.

Don’t know those. Thought you might have mentioned Snowbird.

@sparky You keep thinking Butch, that’s what you’re good at.

Snowbird and Alta are excellent but too busy for my taste

Robert Redford: 20 Essential Movies

Robert Redford's best roles, from 'The Candidate' to 'Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid,' 'All the President's Men,' 'The Way We Were,' and more.

The Natural for me

Great book too

Bovidae

I've just watched Spy Game in his honour. I love me a Tony Scott action movie.

Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid would be my favourite followed by The Sting. Sneakers is an underrated guilty pleasure.

@MiketheSnow Have you ordered your turquoise ski jacket yet? Hear very popular in Wales.
