[For the benefit of those who are new to Wasatch Freestyle ,the Utah Olympic Park at Kimbal Junction has a small ski hill directly behind the museum building. 

• The hill is serviced by a tow rope, and in past years, provides a short mogul field, various park and pipe features and a skicross course.

• Day/season passes for thefacility are purchased at the museum desk.  The service desk will issue you a colored, paper band a as a pass, which most athletes hang on the back of their helmet.  Even if you purchase a pass for the season, you must stop in at the museum service desk each time you visit to get your pass/band.

• There is no open skiing here; all sking must be done under the supervision of a team coach.

• The facility sits at the top of the mountain, and the weather can be quite harsh.  Dress warmly. 

• There is a heated spectator room at the the back of the museum for parents and cold athletes.]
