Web: Salt Lake City 2002 Olympic Only half an hour drive away from Salt Lake City, Snowbasin has the potential to become one of the nicest resorts near the Olympic host city. The speed events of the 2002 Games are planned there and superb courses have been built and also tested at the US National Championships in March 1999. Switzerland's Bernhard Russi, who is in charge of the design, is very excited about the terrain. At the top, the view over the town and the desert is breath-taking. The lands around the ski area is owned by the same company that runs beautiful Sun Valley (Sinclair Oil) and is being kept wild. Deer can be seen in the woods along with bald eagles. A tunnel is going to be built from Salt Lake City to Snow Basin for an easy ride for the skiers and the visitors. So far, only a base lodge has been built for the 2002 Olympics.
