Ski jumping in summer, you ask? Why of course. It is said that the facilities are busier in the summer months than during the winter. Special teflon mats on the in-runs and the out-runs provide the slipping surfaces, and allow training camps to run all summer. The weather is better too. | |

COP is a popular destination for visitors to Calgary. The Olympic Hall of Fame and the new ice house are but two of the main attractions. And to top it off, a ride up the chair lift provides access to the enclosure atop the 90 meter ski jump tower, where the views of the city and surrounding area are spectacular. | |
