Things to do in Sun Valley
Sun Valley was created in 1936 by Union Pacific Railroad chairman W. Averell Harriman as America’s first destination ski resort, and its lodge introduced the world’s first chairlifts. Hollywood stars and writers, including Ernest Hemingway, made it famous, and today it remains one of the West’s best-known mountain resorts, with skiing on Bald Mountain and Dollar Mountain and the town of Ketchum next door. Real estate, hospitality and second homes drive the economy of the Wood River Valley, and the area hosts an annual media and technology conference each summer.
