#3: Take some cool runnings

Utah hosted the 2002 Winter Olympics, and you can witness all the winter venues – the moguls and monster jumps at Deer Valley, the Slalom and Superpipe at Park City, even the Nordic 90-meter and the official Torch at Utah Olympic Park. For $200, you can ride the full track four-man Olympic Bobsled in 50 seconds. Be warned, it's "an aggressive, violent minute-long ride during which you will pull 5Gs and 80 mph." This ride is no amusement park thrill – it’s more like being hurtled over the frozen falls of Niagara in a metal trash can.
