Situated
in a beautiful, breathtaking mountain setting, Snowbird Resort provides
an extraordinary environment for the Summer Research Conferences. The
atmosphere is comparable to the collegial gatherings at Oberwolfach and
other conferences that combine peaceful natural ambience with stimulating
meetings.
Summer
Research Conferences participants have access to a range of activities
such as a tram ride to the top of the mountain, guided hikes, swimming,
mountain bike tours, rock climbing, plus heated outdoor pools. More than
a dozen walking and hiking trails head deep in the surrounding mountains.
Participants also enjoy the simpler pleasures of convening on the patios
at the resort to read, work, and socialize.
In
the evenings colleagues enjoy informal gatherings to network and continue
discussion of the day's sessions over refreshments.
