Snowbasin, a Sun Valley Resort, is nestled in the glittering snowfields high above Ogden, Utah. What began in 1940 as a "huge public playground" has grown into hosting the 2002 Winter Olympic Downhill, super G and combined events. Snowbasin is one of the oldest, continuously operating ski areas in the United States. It is owned by the group that includes the Sun Valley resort in Idaho and Little America Hotels.
