This past week the Bobsled and Skeleton World Cup competition was held in Park City at the 2002 Olympic Park.  The coolest part, aside from the world class athletes competing here in Utah, was the fact that the event was free. If you missed it, here is a recap of the event.

Just up the hill, literally, from nearly a dozen of the Utah Vacation Homes Bear Hollow properties, the Utah Olympic Park is home to the Bobsled/Luge/Skeleton track as well as the Ski Jumping venue from the 2002 Winter Olympic Games.  Most of the events held there are free for spectators so if you find yourself in Utah for a ski vacation, be sure to check out the Olympic Park schedule of events.

Starting up later this week (February 22 - March 1) is the United States Luge Junior National Championships. Once again, admission is free for you to watch the best youth and junior luge athletes from across the country. A few of these athletes may compete in the next winter Olympics.
