This Waymark is dedicated to a fellow Utah Waymarker and an active Geocacher. Nancy (Mom the Cook & CashnHubby) is currently battling cancer in Salt Lake City and is unable to participate in two of her favorite pastimes while she devotes her energies toward overcoming this burden. Go Nancy!
From the Museum web page:
The Alf Engen Ski Museum is one of two impressive anchor exhibits of the Joe Quinney Winter Sports Center. The George Eccles 2002 Olympic Winter Games museum is the other. Here you are more than a spectator - you're a participant! That's because our state-of-the-art interactive and virtual exhibits place you in the epicenter of the past, present and future of winter sports in the Intermountain Region, including an Olympic downhill course. That's a great way to experience one of the most extensive collections of ski and Olympic/Paralympic Winter Games memorabilia in the U.S. The museum's comprehensive educational component gives school children a skiing-based foundation to study subjects such as the water cycle, physics and Utah's colorful history.
