Utah is known to skiers for its awesome powder snow. It’s light. It’s fluffy. And there is usually lots of it. It’s something most skiers want to experience at least once in a lifetime. Although I am a skier from Colorado, where the snow is just as awesome, I still wanted to schuss downhill through Utah’s powder.

National parks throughout the United States have at least one thing in common: someone interesting had a hand in making that park what it is today. Some of these people are well-known, such as President Theodore Roosevelt, and others are fairly obscure, such as Thomas Moran, an artist whose sketches of Yellowstone persuaded Congress to create the first national park.

Tucked away at the south end of the 22,000-acre Wasatch Mountain State Park in Utah sits Soldier Hollow Cross-Country Ski Resort. Nestled in the foothills beneath majestic Mt. Timpanogos, overlooking the amazing views of Heber Valley, it still remains relatively unknown—even to Utahans. It is best known as the site of the biathlon and cross-country skiing events during the 2002 Winter Olympics, and was one of the busiest venues during the games. Soldier Hollow is now a permanent site for professional athletes from all over the world and a state park recreational site for the general public, offering cross-country skiing, snowshoeing and tubing.

I’m a professional photographer traveling the United States by myself in a big motor coach, towing a very heavy Land Rover so I can go where the motor coach can’t. I’ve invested a major portion of my life in this multi-year project I call Vanishing America— documenting the changing face of our nation—and I almost had to give it up because I didn’t use the right equipment for the job. The equipment I so dramatically allude to is my tow bar.

First, I want to thank my high school buddy, Tom Williams, for introducing me to Park City, Utah, in January of 1967 before we joined the Army. That first incredible visit turned into many more visits over the coming years. Then in 1981, I was very fortunate to experience Deer Valley Resort during its inaugural season. It was unlike any other ski resort I had ever come across. Outside of the impeccably manicured slopes, what stood out most for me was the upscale gourmet fare presented ever so beautifully. I truly had never experienced such a fabulous array of food ever before—anywhere. The service that first season was as excellent as it is today, and helped make Deer Valley Resort an instant success in the ski industry. And, believe me, I had skied at many, many resorts.

History is geography set in motion,” said the 18th century philosopher Johann Gottfried Herder. You can see the truth behind that observation with a visit to the National Historic Trails Interpretive Center in Casper, Wyoming.
