Sun Valley, Idaho
The name "Sun Valley" was thought up by a New York PR man who thought the name appropriate for a place that receives 250 days of sunshine a year. This marked the first time a PR agency was guilty of understatement. To find your sunshine and adventure and for the most up to date travel and vacation planning information on Sun Valley Idaho, the Sun Valley Idaho CVB website is the source for information on lodging, restaurants, attractions and events.

Bald Mountain is considered by serious skiers as the country's single best ski mountain with 13 lifts and 64 runs. Seven high-speed quads, four triples and two doubles send skiers up 3,400 vertical feet to a summit altitude of 9,150. Recognized for both its absence of lift lines as well as its incredibly light and fast snow, Bald Mountain has terrain for everyone. From glades to bowls, bumps to groomers, tree skiing to easy rollers, this mountain has it all!
Not every Sun Valley winter activity requires a lift ticket. The surrounding area supplies visitors with an endless variety of spectacular scenery and sporting diversions. Spend a day mushing a pack of huskies, turn a few circles at the famed Sun Valley ice rink, cuddle up in a cozy yurt or hop a horse-drawn sleigh for a hearty dinner at the legendary Trail Creek Cabin. Snowmobiles provide an easy means to explore the incredible backcountry, while the devoted will still be fishing the local rivers in mid December. With so much to occupy your time, a return trip to Sun Valley will definitely be in order.
