Learn to luge

Zoom at up to 55 mph down the ice track used in the ’02 Olympics in a one-person, feet-first luge. Workshops ($75; wasatchluge.org for dates) start low and slow to build skill and confidence.

Or ride the Comet, a four-person bobsled (through Mar 21; closed Sun; $200; no children under 16; olyparks.com), to fly at up to 80 mph with 5 Gs of force ― equal to a 40-story drop in just under a minute.
