Designed and built as part of Utah's Olympic Bid, "during the 2002 Olympic Winter Games, the venue welcomed more than 300,000 visitors during 16 days of competition. The Utah Olympic Park was the site of 14 events with three in ski jumping, three in Nordic combined, three in bobsled, three in luge and two in skeleton. This acclaimed facility, recognized for the fastest sliding track and highest-elevated jumps in the world, has hosted multiple World Cup events in ski jumping, Nordic combined, bobsled, skeleton and luge in preparation for the 2002 Games. As well as hosting future World Cups, the Park has already been selected as the site of the 2005 World Luge Championships." This facility also houses the Alf Engen Ski Museum and the 2002 Eccles Olympic Museum.
