Afternoon at the Utah Olympic Park

If you are tired of mountain-biking, trail running or golfing, the best next thing for you is to spend an afternoon at the Utah Olympic Park, next to Kimball Junction and only a few miles away from Park City.

Sitting on the sidelines, in the shade or in full sun, spectators can get their fill of world-class athletes practicing their freestyle skills, jumping, flipping, twisting in search of their perfect form before landing in the pool below.

There are even ranked beginners taking their first baby steps over a “mini” jump and their struggle with the kind of fear and commitment it takes to jump is is every bit as compelling or fun as the Olympic Class! It's a very simple form and entertainment, it's easy to access, sporty in spirit and free during week-days.

Weekends are featuring a more orderly exhibition of talent, and there's a nominal charge for it, but if you don't know what to do, have a couple of hours to burn or show something different to visiting friends, this is the perfect venue. Try it and just like us, you'll be sold on it!
