Sundance Resort
Sundance Mountain Resort is a ski resort located northeast of Provo, Utah. Spanning over on the slopes of Mount Timpanogos in Utah's Wasatch Range, alpine skiing began on the site in 1944. Actor Robert Redford acquired the area in 1968,〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Sundance Village and Ski Resort )〕 and established a year-round resort which would later spawn the independent Sundance Film Festival and the non-profit Sundance Institute. Sundance is committed to the balance of art, nature and community.〔http://www.sundanceresort.com/about-us-en.html〕
==History==
The ski area opened as Timp Haven in 1944 with a rope tow. It was owned by S. Paul Stewart and run with the help of his brother, Ray Stewart for over twenty years. A T-bar lift was added at the base in 1949 which was about in length, and a single chairlift was added in the fall of 1953, with a length of about . The first double chairlift was installed in the fall of 1965 and replaced the lower single chair and an upper T-bar, vertically climbing . It had an accident the following July which resulted in two fatalities. While owned by the Stewart family, the ski area was closed on Sundays.
In August 1968, Robert Redford purchased the land that is now known as Sundance,〔 with the vision of the careful growth of a community devoted to the balance of art, nature and recreation. In 1981, the Sundance Institute was founded to foster and celebrate the diversity of American filmmaking.
The resort is not named after the role he played in the 1969 film, ''Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid''.〔 Its name is derived from multiple associations of private importance to Redford. One is the respect given to the Native American Sun Dance, while another refers to how the sun dances around the rim of the mountains throughout the day. The resort of Sundance is not to be confused with the town of Sundance, Wyoming, the location from which the Sundance Kid received his name. Redford's 1972 film ''Jeremiah Johnson'' was filmed near the resort.
