One last Utah Blog....Olympic Park Extras.....
This park was really neat! This park was created for the 2002 winter Olympics, but they now have a training facility for athletes to train in the summer. Here are pictures of the Aerial training facility Instead of landing on snow they land in the pool. Neat, huh? We were really lucky to be able to watch the Chinese Olympians train while we were there.
These guys were crazy!!
Random pic of Chris attempting to fulfil his bobsledding dreams.
Back to the Olympians. Here is a great picture Chris took of an athlete right before entering the pool.
This was the only female athlete we saw attempt to go off the highest slope. Nice form!
One other side note....Utah's Olympic Park is the only place you can ride on an ACTUAL OLYMPIC BOBSLED TRACK! They have professionals to drive, of course.
