By Alan K. Engen ver the years, skiing has had its share of sad stories involving injury, and sometimes even death, to participants of the sport. Being an action sport, Oskiing carries an element of risk, especially to competitive ski athletes who put their safety on the line on a regular basis. Such was the situation for a young, beautiful, and very talented skier named Jill Kinmont. In January 1955, Jill Kinmont was considered one of the top women skiers in the country and had been featured on the cover of Sports Illustrated magazine. It was strongly felt by many noted ski authorities that she would be named to the 1956 U.S. Olympic Team. One of the main qualifying events for Olympic Team consideration in the 1950s was the Snow Cup giant slalom which was a nationally recognized FIS “A” level competition held annually at Alta, Utah.
