## Description

The "SUN" code fits: this is the airport for Sun Valley, America's first purpose-built ski resort, where Union Pacific strung the world's first chairlift in 1936. Friedman Memorial also hosts the jet traffic for the annual Allen & Co conference in nearby Ketchum — the media moguls' "summer camp" — and once drew Ernest Hemingway to the valley for good. At 5,300 feet, arrivals come for powder and dealmaking, not for freight; seasonal service links Hailey to Salt Lake City, Denver and Seattle, while any urgent cargo routes through Boise (BOI).
