Getting there: From I-80, take the Park City Kimball Junction exit. Turn south toward Park City. 0.4 miles from the freeway, turn right on the Olympic Parkway. At the roundabout, go 3/4 around (effectively a left turn) to head south on Olympic Parkway. The road will begin climbing. At one mile from I-80, turn right into a gravel parking area. The RTS loop is just inside the break in the fence. Upper-mountain access: You can reach connectors to the Legacy Loop from the top of the Utah Olympic Park area. Using either the Olympic Parkway or Bear Hollow Drive, head up the mountain to the ridgeline. An entry trail is found on the east side of the road opposite the Bobsled facility, and on the south side of the road as you approach the Slide loading area. Bathrooms: None at trailhead. Water: None at trailhead. Trail conditions, connections, and alignments will change. Use this guide at your own risk. |
