The Valley of the Sun is a resort town in Blaine County in central Idaho, in the western United States. The resort is adjacent to the town of Ketchum and within the larger Wooden River valley. The population is 1,406 at the 2010 census, down from 1,427 in 2000. The height of the Solar Valley (at the Lodge) is 5,920 feet (1,805 m) above sea level. Scheduled passenger service is available via Friedman Memorial Airport located near Hailey, about 15 miles (25 km) south. Visitors to Sun Valley are relatively close to the Sawtooth National Recreation Area, accessed via Galena Summit on State Highway 75, Sawtooth Scenic Byway.
Among the skiers, the term "Valley of the Sun" refers to the alpine ski area, which consists of Bald Mountain, the main ski mountain adjacent to Ketchum, and Dollar Mountain, adjacent to Sun Valley, for beginner and lower-skier skiers. Bald Mountain, or "Baldy," has a peak of 9,150 feet (2,790 m) and a vertical drop of 3,400 feet (1,035 m). With an abundance of constant-pitch terrain, at varying degrees of difficulty, coupled with substantial vertical drops and absence of wind, Baldy is often referred to as one of the better ski mountains in the world. The "Dollar" seedless at 6,638 feet (2,023 m) has a vertical height of 628 feet (191 m).
The term "Valley of the Sun" is used more generally to talk about the area around the city, including the neighboring town of Ketchum and the Wood River Valley area winding south to Hailey and Bellevue. This region has been a seasonal home for the rich and famous since it was first brought to public attention by Ernest Hemingway in the late 1930s.

Histori
Union Pacific Railroad (1936-64)
The first destination winter resort in the US was developed by W. Averell Harriman, chair of the Union Pacific Railroad, primarily to increase the number of passengers in U.P. train passengers in the West. The success of the 1932 Winter Olympics in Lake Placid, New York, encouraged increased participation in winter sports (and alpine skiing in particular). A lifelong skier, Harriman decides that America will embrace a destination mountain resort, similar to what he enjoys in the Swiss Alps, Moritz and Davos. During the winter of 1935-1936, Harriman enrolled the Austrian counting service, Felix Schaffgotsch, to travel throughout the western US to find an ideal location for the winter resort. Count visit Mount Rainier, Mt. Hood, Yosemite, San Bernardino Mountains, Sion, Rocky Mountain National Park, Wasatch Mountains, Pocatello, Jackson Hole and Grand Targhee area. At the end of his journey and almost leaving his search for an ideal location for the development of a mountain resort, he retreated to the Ketchum area in central Idaho. A U.P. Employees in Boise casually mentioned that the railroad driven into Ketchum made the company spend more money to clear the snow than other branch lines and the Count went to explore.
Schaffgotsch was impressed by the combination of Mount Bald and the surrounding mountains, considerable snow, abundant sunshine, moderate elevation, and absence of wind, and chose it as a site. Harriman visited a few weeks later and agreed. The 3.888 acre Brass Ranch (15.73 km 2 ) was purchased for about $ 4 per acre and construction began that spring; it was built in seven months for $ 1.5 million. Humas Steve Hannagan named the "Sun Valley" resort and developed the tag line: "Winter sports under the summer sun." (Count Schaffgotsch back to Austria and killed on the Eastern Front during World War II.) The essence of this new resort is the Sun Valley Lodge, which opened in December 1936. The 220-room-shaped X-shaped hotel exterior was built of concrete, rough-sawn. The wood grain impressed on the concrete end, which was stained with sour chocolate to mimic the wood. Sun Valley Inn is a Swiss-style (originally "Challenger Inn") and the village is also part of the early resort, opened in 1937. Hannagan wants a swimming pool at the resort, "so people will not think skiing is too cold." Both Lodge and the Inn have a heated, round-shaped outdoor pool. Hannagan has a pool designed in this way, unique at the time, in hopes they will be photographed extensively, giving free publicity, and it works.
Hanging chair
The world's first hanging chairs were installed in Proctor and Dollar Mountains in the fall of 1936. (Proctor Mountain is to the northeast of the Dollar Mountain). U.P. The design of the chairlift is adapted by an engineer who invokes banana banana loading equipment used for the cargo of tropical fruit ships. Seat seats are developed in U.P. headquarters in Omaha in the summer of 1936. The chandelier continued to replace the primitive crane ropes and other adaptations seen in the ski area at the time. The original Proctor Mountain Ski Lift is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
Celebrity
Author Ernest Hemingway completed For Whom the Bell Tolls, while living in suite 206 of the Lodge in the fall of 1939. Averell Harriman has invited Hemingway and other celebrities, mainly from Hollywood, to the resort to help promote me. Gary Cooper often visits and hunts, such as Clark Gable, Errol Flynn, Lucille Ball, Marilyn Monroe, and several members of the Kennedy family. Hemingway was a part-time resident for the next twenty years, eventually moving to Ketchum ("Papa" and his fourth wife buried in Ketchum Cemetery). The Hemingway Memorial, dedicated in 1966, just off Trail Creek Road, about a mile northeast from Sun Valley Lodge.
Sun Valley was featured (and promoted) in the 1941 film Sun Valley Serenade, starring Sonja Henie, John Payne, Milton Berle, and band leader Glenn Miller. The scene was shot at the resort in March 1941. Sun Valley transferred local and future gold medalist Gretchen Fraser is a ski stand-in for Henie.
In February 1958, the cast of "I Love Lucy" filmed an episode of a one-hour, one-hour follow-up sequence known in the syndicate as "The Lucy-Desi Comedy Hour", in Bald Mountain.
In 1971, the astronaut Jim Irwin, when stepping on the surface of the Hadley-Apennine Moon, the famous skier exclaimed that it was like Sun Valley.
Sun Valley's oldest citizen is a former actress and silent film star, Barbara Kent. Other residents are actress Ann Sothern, whose career spans six decades and includes 64 films and 175 television episodes; she is buried in Ketchum cemetery.
Among those associated with Sun Valley are Arnold Schwarzenegger, Mark Zuckerberg, Mats Wilander, Warren Buffett, Walter Annenberg, Adam West, Tom Hanks, Oprah Winfrey, Steve Miller, Demi Moore, Peter Cetera, Clint Eastwood, Bruce Willis, Ashton Kutcher , Richard Dreyfuss, Jamie Lee Curtis, Steve Wynn, Justin Timberlake, Mohamed al-Fayed, Barbara Kent, Bill Gates, Tony Robbins, and Gary Cooper.
World War II
During World War II, the resort closed in 1942 and was transformed into an emergency hospital for the US Navy (Pacific Theater), which operated in July 1943. It was reopened to the public in December 1946.
After the war, the resort clinic operated on the third floor of the north wing of Sun Valley Lodge (the closest wing to Trail Creek Rd.) Until Sun Valley Community Hospital was built in 1961. The facility was named after Drs. John Moritz when he retired in 1973; Nebraska-born surgeons have served as doctors throughout the resort year for 33 years. Moritz Hospital was closed shortly after St. John's hospital. The recently opened Luke (south Ketchum) in November 2000 and the Moritz building now function as employee housing.
Warren Miller
Recorded film producer Warren Miller, in his early twenties, a winter at Sun Valley from 1946-1949, first stayed in a small car and trailer fountain in the River Run parking lot. Miller then rented an unfurnished garage for five dollars a month and rented room floors to friends to throw their sleeping bags (fifty cents per night). One of these friends is Edward Scott, inventor of the future of light aluminum ski pole. This extra money helped Miller to buy his first 16mm film, to start his film career. During this time, he evolved from a ski bum, to a ski instructor, to skiing filmmakers.
Miller has traveled and shooting all over the world, but until the last few years, he keeps returning to Sun Valley almost every year. She has featured Sun Valley in dozens of her yearly films, which have helped publicize the Sun Valley region around the world. The movie is still playing all over the country today.
Bill Janss (1964-77)
After World War II, Harriman focused on his career in government service and Union Pacific gradually lost interest in the resort. The rail service was suspended to Ketchum in 1964 and by November the resort was sold to Janss Investment Company, Southern California's premier real estate developer headed by former Olympic ski team member Bill Janss (1918-96), founder of Snowmass. (Janss were an alternative in the 1940 team, but the match was canceled due to the war). The railway management had called Janss Corporation as a consultant and determined that it would need a lot of work and no less than $ 6 million to look up. Union Pacific decided to sell and the brothers Ed and Bill Janss bid just under $ 3 million.
During this Jans era of ownership, the north-facing Warm Springs area was developed, as well as Seattle Ridge, and condominiums and home construction increased significantly. Seven chairs were added, and the number of lanes increased from 33 to 62. The first two seats in Warm Springs were installed in series in 1965; The upper "limelight" has a vertical rise of 2,200 feet (670 m), the largest in the US at the time for a chairlift. Bill Janss bought his brother's share from the resort and gained complete control over Sun Valley in 1968. The snowmaking was introduced in limited extent in the fall of 1975, 40 acres (16 ha) to 8,200 feet (2,500 ft). m) The original Seattle Ridge double chairs were installed in 1976, but because of a very bad snowfall in 1976-1977 it was not operated until December 20, 1977, was baptized by local legend Gretchen Fraser. Janss also has a ski pass named after him, called "Janss Pass," to the left of the skier from the Frenchman's chair. Janss' wife, Ann, aged 54, died in 1973 during a ski helicopter near Sun Valley. Later that year, Janss married Mrs. Glenn Cooper, a widow, family friend and mother of five, including World Cup rider Christin Cooper, silver medalist in the women's giant slalom at the 1984 Winter Olympics.
Under Janss ownership, the Elkhorn area to the southeast of Dollar Mountain was developed by Sun Valley Company and Johns-Manville, beginning in 1972. During the excavation, ancient equipment found nearly 7,000 years was discovered. The Elkhorn golf course opened in the summer of 1975.
Janss ran out of funds in 1977 and had entered negotiations to sell the resort to the Walt Disney Company. While the negotiations were assembled by Disney, Earl Holding, a Utah businessman, learned of the situation through a small article in The Wall Street Journal and contacted Janss and arranged the meeting. Approximately $ 12 million, Holding bought Sun Valley through its company, Sinclair Oil, which operates Grand America Hotels & amp; Resorts. Holding was initially unbelievable by many locals: "Earl is a Four Letter Word" was a popular bumper sticker in the late 1970s in Blaine County. But time proves that Holding does not buy the resort for property speculation; such as other assets that are intended to operate and improve over the long term. One of his first changes was to remove the single-seat chairlift at the Exhibition, replacing it with a triple. Daily lift tickets for Baldy during the first season of Holding (1977-78) for $ 13.
Under Holding ownership there are major improvements on the mountain: extensive snow making and maintenance, high capacity chairlifts, and the construction of four impressive day cottages, gondolas and renovations of the classic Roundhouse restaurant. The resort's golf course was redesigned in the late 1970s by Robert Trent Jones Jr.
In 1977, the Warm Springs side boasted 100 acres of snowmaking to an altitude of 8,200 feet (2,500 m), regarded as the highest anywhere at the time. During the late 1980s and early 1990s, snowmaking was significantly expanded in Bald Mountain. Three high-speed quad hanging chairs were installed during the summer of 1988 (Christmas, Challenger, & Greyhawk).
An impressive booth, built of logs, river rocks and glass, opened at the base of Warm Springs in the fall of 1992, replacing the 1960s "Northface Hut" cafeteria. The same day lodges then opened at the summit of Seattle Ridge (1993), and the base of River Run (1995).
An older cafeteria, a simple "floor Lookout Restaurant", is 120 feet (37 m) below the peak at 9,030 feet (2,752 m), at the top of three chairs. Built in 1973, it is the ground floor of a never-ending terraced building, producing a "basement-like" atmosphere. Nevertheless, the view of the mountains from the inn near the summit is quite impressive. However, this newly approved resort master plan has facilities scheduled for final replacement.
Four additional high-speed thighs were installed in the 1990s. Two of them replaced older hanging chairs at River Run (1992) and Seattle Ridge (1993), and two new lines: Lookout Express (1993) and Frenchman's (1994). The hanging chairs from River Run were bought by Eldora Mountain Resort in Colorado. 13 Baldy chairs have a capacity of over 23,000 skiers per hour. With an average of 3,500 skiers per day (& less than 6,000 skiers per day during peak periods), Sun Valley has made the elevator line the minimum, rarely among the major resorts.
The Dollar Mountain Lodge opened in November 2004. Today's cottage replaces Dollar Cabin, and also serves as a base for the Sun Valley Ski School. It's similar in construction to newer days lodges on big mountains.
The interior of the original Sun Valley Lodge has been renovated twice during Holding ownership, in 1985 for golden anniversary and again in 2004. The Sun Valley Inn was also renovated recently.
The Sun Valley Golf Course saw a significant increase in the summer of 2008, with the opening of a new "White Cloud Nine" course on the old Gun Club site (moved further along Trail Creek Road), as well as the opening of "Sun Valley Club", the club house full-service golf built in the style of mountain lodges in the resort, replacing much smaller and older facilities.
That year also saw the opening of "The Valley Valley Pavilion," built in partnership with Sun Valley Summer Symphony as a permanent home for the annual three-and-half-week orchestra concert series. The Pavilion is a performing arts facility that has hosted several famous music artists and is more ready to show in the near future.
In 2009, the resort installed the "Roundhouse Express Gondola" at Bald Mountain, which runs from River Run Base Mountain to Roundhouse Restaurant (located at the center of the mountain, at 7,700 feet (2,350 m).The Exhibition triple chairlift, originally as a single seat on 1939, was removed with the addition of a new 8-passenger elevator. The new Gondola takes both skiers and non-skiers to a restaurant for lunch and ends up having dinner all year round. The Roundhouse restaurant was built 79 years ago in 1939 and was completed renovated to accommodating the new year's role in 2010.
Earl Holding died in April 2013 and his family continued to run the resort. In 2006, Forbes magazine estimated that Sun Valley is worth in the $ 300 million range.
Ski racing
In the years before the World Cup circuit, the Sun Valley Bundle Cup was one of the major skiing races held in North America, along with the "Snow Cup" in Alta, the "Roch Cup" in the Aspen Mountains, and the "Silver Belt" race at Sugar Bowl, north of Lake Tahoe. Originally known as the "Sun Valley International Open," the Harriman Cup race was the first major international skiing competition to be held in North America, beginning in 1937. The first three competitions of 1937-1939 were held in the Boulder Mountains north of Sun Valley. Starting in 1940, the Harriman Cup was held on the Warm Springs side of Bald Mountain, a few decades before a chairlift was installed on the north side of the mountain. American Dick Durrance won three of the first four Harriman Cups, captivating overconfident Europeans.
In the last season before the World Cup launch, Sun Valley hosted the world's top 1966 racer at "American International" in late March, with a row full of races for both men and women. With the 1966 World Championships not running until August, it was one of the biggest alpine racing events since the 1964 Olympics. Austria swept away the men (Heini Messner, Karl Schranz, and Egon Zimmermann), while Jean-Claude Killy of France won the slalom, with Schranz as runner-up. Both exchanged places in the once-managed giant slalom. Erika Schinegger from Austria, Nancy Greene from Canada, and Marielle Goitschel of France are in the top three on the women's team, while Goitschel and teammate Annie Famose finish 1-2 at the slalom. Goitschel, Greene, and Famose are top scorers in the giant slalom and France takes the overall team title.
In March 1975 and 1977, Sun Valley hosted a World Cup ski race, with slalom and a giant slalom show for men and women, running on the Warm Springs side of the mountain.
Slalom 1975 was won by Gustavo Thoeni, the dominant World Cup skier in the early 1970s (which turned out to be his final victory in slalom discipline). Ingemar Young Stenmark from Sweden, perhaps the greatest technical ski driver ever, won the giant slalom title for two years. Thoeni and Stenmark left Idaho tied in the overall standings in 1975, which Thoeni won in parallel slalom finals next week in Italy. Phil Mahre of White Pass, Washington, age 19, won the 1977 slalom race over Stenmark, with Steve's third-placed sister. It was Phil's second win (he had won the GS in France in December), but his first victory in slalom and first in the US, and coming from the Northwest, is very close to home.
Current ownership has declined to host every World Cup race since, as it involves closing off runs for significant time. But during the 2002 Winter Olympics in Salt Lake (about 300 miles (480 km) to the southeast), Sun Valley is used as a training ground for many ski and mountain ski teams in the countries of the world. The alpine speed events for the Games are held at the resort together, Snowbasin, outside Ogden, Utah.
Sun Valley is scheduled to host the US Alps Championship in 2016 and 2018, held after the World Cup season in March. The last time the show host was in 1951.
Sun Valley Olympic medalists include Gretchen Fraser, Christin Cooper, Picabo Street, Snowboarder Kaitlyn Farrington, and the disabled skier Muffy Davis, founding board member and honorary member of Sun Valley Adaptive Sports. The five have been named after them at Bald Mountain: three are in Seattle Ridge (Gretchen Gold, Christin's Silver (ex-Silver Fox) and Muffy's Medals (ex-Southern Comfort)), Picabo's Street (ex-Plaza) in Warm Springs, and Kaitlyn's Bowl (ex-Farout Bowl) in the Bowl. US TV legendary TV commentator Tim Ryan (CBS/NBC) also lives in Sun Valley and the proud owner of Ski Racing Magazine, Gary Black Jr.

Local, regional and national artists are represented through gallery exhibitions, concerts, theater productions, dance productions, film festivals, lectures, opera and symphonic performances.
"At an altitude of 5,945 feet (1,812 m), the air in Sun Valley is cleared - and so are the customers of the art galleries on the flight.Serving most of the fine and well-educated art collections are art galleries that can accommodate themselves in Manhattan, Berlin , London or Los Angeles. "- Art Magazine Ltd
The Sun Valley non-profit center for Arts and Humanity began in 1969 by Ny. Glenn Cooper and Bill Janss, who later married. It achieved a nonprofit status and was officially established in 1971; the original 5-acre (20,000m 2 ) campus is located outside Dollar Road in Sun Valley. Studios and workshops are open to the public and focus on Ceramics, founded by James Romberg; Photography, founded by Sheri Heiser and Peter deLory; and Pure Art, founded by David W. Wharton. SVC offers year-round workshops, lectures and exhibits by artists and artisans nationally recognized to residents and tourists in Blaine County. The Sun Valley Art Center now has a main building in nearby Ketchum as well as Hailey's historic homes and classrooms, and continues to present an impressive list of guest artists in the visual arts and performances.
In 2014, FOCUS Mountain Media, a Sun Valley-based publishing group, launched a quarterly magazine on mountain culture with a special view of life in Sun Valley.
Adaptive sports for people with disabilities
The Sun Valley region offers a wide range of year-round adaptive sports programs for people with disabilities including the local DSUSA Chapter - Sun Valley Highlands; Wood River Capability Program; Sage Brush Equine Training Center for Disabled People and Camp Rainbow Gold, teenage cancer program.
Two parts
A small mountain saddle divides the city of Sun Valley into two parts. The north is centered around Sun Valley Lodge, Inn, and the famous "village" complex of original 18-hole shops, condominiums and golf courses (27 holes in 2008), leading to the Valley Trail Creek to the northeast. This area is referred to as "Sun Valley."
The southern Elkhorn area, adjacent to the Mountain Dollar, has a condo complex and an 18-hole golf course. Quite different and separate, including a drier "bush" appearance, originally developed in 1972. The Sun Valley Company took over the day-to-day operations of Elkhorn Golf Club in July 2011 and was named Rick Hickman the director of golf operations for the company.
Adjacent to Sun Valley is Ketchum old town, which is only a mile downstream from Sun Valley Lodge (along Trail Creek). Ketchum consists primarily of a 19th-century urban center (with its limited network system) and lands adjacent to Bald Mountain along the Big Wood River and Warm Springs Creek.
CVB Sun Valley/Ketchum offers extensive area information about events, vacation planning information, and area resources.
On September 11, 2005, the Dalai Lama visited Wood River High School in Hailey to give speeches on understanding and friendship in remembrance of the Sept. 11, 2001 attacks and extending condolences to thousands of people affected by Hurricane Katrina recently.
