Blue-Ribbon Fly Fishing
Utah's excellent fly fishing streams and rivers have only recently begun to receive the notice they deserve. Some of the best include: the Sevier River near Marysvale, Seven-Mile Creek near Fish Lake, the Provo, Weber, Logan, and Green Rivers, Corn Creek near Kanosh, Strawberry Reservoir and the Strawberry River east of Heber, Huntington Creek southwest of Price, and the hundreds of streams in the Uinta Mountains in northeastern Utah.

Utah fly fishing anglers seeking "the big one" will be thrilled with the variety of big fish. A Utah fly fishing trip can be organized any time of year with the help of knowledgeable guides who are ready to teach the secrets of the wily Utah fish.

Boating on the Reservoirs
With over 800 miles of groomed snowmobiling trails from the red rock canyons of Southern Utah to the rugged mountains in the Northern reaches of the state, Utah has plenty of snowmobiling options. Eight unique snowmobiling complexes are located across the state with interlinking trail systems. For those who prefer powder, there are thousands of acres of high-mountain bowls that can be accessed from the groomed complexes. Whatever your reasons for snowmobiling, you will find endless opportunities in Utah's mountains. As the advertisement says, "If your adrenaline doesn't leave you breathless, the scenery will."

Carve it up at the Skatepark
When the snow has melted and the boarders have gone into hibernation, there are still a lot of tricks being thrown in Park City. Our Skateboard Park is just the place for boarders to get their summer fill. Park City's new skateboard park is located in City Park. The hours of operation run everyday from 9:00 a.m. until dusk. It is the largest outdoor, cement facility in the state of Utah. Park City Recreation is offering several skateboarding clinics during the summer. For both youth under 12 & adults. Call Ken Fisher at 615-5411 or register at the Park City Racquet Club.

Utah Olympic Park
Utah Olympic Park was a competition venue for the 2002 Olympic Winter Games for Nordic jumping and the sliding sports of bobsleigh, luge and skeleton. The nearly 400-acre Park features a mixture of sporting facilities and visitor areas for an incredible Olympic experience.

Public Bobsled Rides: Go up to 80 miles per hour, experience 4 G’s of force and equivalent of a 40-story drop in less than a minute on a four person public passenger bobsled ride. An experienced driver takes three passengers on a thrilling ride down the entire length of the Olympic bobsled track

NEW-Quicksilver Alpine Slide: Take a ride on our brand new Quicksilver Alpine Slide. Use a toboggan-like sled to zoom down a state-of-the-art stainless steel track. See what it feels like to be a luge, skeleton or bobsleigh athlete as you race through the trees on this new sports slide for the public.

Ziplines Send Riders Down Ski Hill On Cable: Go down the Xtreme Zip at 50 miles per hour along the ski jump hill. Experience the sensation of ski jumping as you slide down a cable in a harness to the base of the ski jumps.

Hot Air Ballooning
If you really want to see Park City, try it from a few thousands feet up. Rise to the elevation of the beautiful Wasatch Mountains, and ride gently above it all. A hot air balloon ride will take your breath away.

Horseback Riding Old West Style
Discover the Wasatch mountains . . . all by horseback! Utah offers much opportunity to explore its many vistas in the old West tradition. When you come to Park City, it's time to leave your cares—and your car—behind and experience the mountains like the miners who founded the city: on horseback. Ride up the mountains and down into the valleys, through the aspen trees and lush underbrush. Can you think of a better way to explore the Rockies?
