Next time you buy a carton of eggs or open the container to grab your Big Mac, remember this palatial ski home and how those little cartons built it! These clever inventions came while Jon Huntsman, Sr. was in the egg producing business in Los Angeles. He then went on to create Huntsman Chemical which produces chemicals for use in almost everything including plastics, automotive, textiles and furniture. As Huntsman Chemical continues its steady growth, the company has recently announced its plans for expansion into China. Jon, Sr. is the father of former Republican presidential nominee Jon Huntsman, Jr.

In the quest for a winter getaway that would house his children, their spouses, 56 grandchildren and additional guests, Jon Huntsman, Sr. created the ultimate ski lodge with every detail we would hope to see in a very large, but exquisitely designed wood cabin-like structure with massive log beams, grand stone fireplaces and lots of glass to view the rugged slopes. Construction began in 1989 by thoughtfully using reclaimed logs and materials from the forests surrounding Yellowstone National Park. The 60 acre property in Upper Deer Valley, Utah, affords the desired privacy to entertain high profile guests as well as being easily accessible. Within the 20,000 square foot living area are 12 bedrooms - two of which are bunk rooms containing 20 bunks each. The dining room seats 20 and there are various gathering rooms, all with fireplaces, vaulted ceilings and stunning views. In addition is the library, a gym, children’s playroom and the pièce de résistance - a huge indoor swimming pool.

Sporting a price reduction that will tweak the imaginations of the world’s billionaires, Jon Huntsman Sr. has reduced the price of his 20,000 square foot Utah ski estate from $49.5 million to $44 million.
