Editorial Reviews
Book Description
Deer Valley is a moderate-sized resort operating on less than 2,000 acres - yet it is ranked by many as North America's top resort for its impeccable service, award-winning food, luxurious rooms, and velvety slopes. This book traces Deer Valley's rise to the top from its founding in 1981, when skeptics scoffed at the idea that skiers would pay to be pampered, to its well-publicized role as venue for the 2002 Olympic Winter Games slalom and freestyle events. One chapter details the life of Deer Valley Director of Skiing Stein Eriksen, the Norwegian Olympic gold medalist who became an icon for the sport. This beautifully produced coffee-table book is illustrated throughout with spectacular photos, illuminating the success behind this luxurious ski resort.
