Sun Valley has long
been a hangout of the rich and famous, attracting the Likes of Ernest
Hemingway, Gary Cooper and Clarke Gable back in the day.
Sun Valley Lodge,
built in the 30’s, has concrete walls stained to look like wood, nicely
done. Behind the hotel is a huge,
all-season ice skating rink. It’s open to the public, has professional shows several times a year.
Adjacent to the
lodge is this music pavilion which has big name entertainment in the summer. The pavilion is about 7 years old and is an
architectural masterpiece. There’s big
money here. Both Sun Valley and Ketchum
are chock full of attractive, unique structures: lodges, homes, hotels,
businesses, you name it.
River Run Lodge, at
the base of Bald Mountain, is right at the edge of town. This ski area has both chair lifts and
gondolas. There are several other ski
lifts in the area, catering to all skill levels.
