A VINTAGE 8X10 INCH PHOTO OF STORM CLOUDS OVER THE BLUE GLACIER IN WASHINGTON ike the Hoh River to the Blue Glacier through lush rainforest. Pass spectacular old-growth dripping with moss, nurse logs providing nourishment to full grown trees and end with a panorama including the the aptly named Blue Glacier and Mount Olympus. The bio-diversity on this hike is seldom seen on such an accessible backpacking trip. Just be sure to check in with the ranger station before overnighting — while there are lots of campsites, it’s a popular place, and you’ll need to reserve in advance. From the trailhead, venture down the flat trail through delightful old-growth. Campsites abound here, but be sure to have a reservation or to check in with rangers at the trailhead; in summer especially, most of the sites cannot support drop-ins. Head into the forest, passing a large sign indicating the mileages to various campsites and landmarks along the way. The first mile of the trail weaves along the banks of the Hoh River, with plenty of lovely views upriver into the forest. This section is also likely to be quite full of other hikers enjoying the area — the Hoh River Trail to 5-Mile Island is a popular dayhike or beginners overnight. Follow the undulating trail through the forest, past the campsite at 5-Mile Island and on to the next site, Happy 4 (found, oddly, at 5.8 miles in. The shelter is a good place to huddle during a rain, and the campsite makes a nice stopping spot, or lunch spot if you’re continuing on. From here the trail turns away from the river and continues through the forest. The moss on the enormous trees lining the trail dampen noise, and when you’re alone the whole area seems muted, almost silent. In this meditative section, you’ll have a log crossing and a short deviation from the riverside, until the next landmark: the Olympus Guard Station, a bit more than 9 miles from the trailhead. A group camp is here, along with a kiosk with signs showing the relative elevation gain for this trail as well as the trail to Bogachiel Peak, which rises to your left as you hike toward the glacier. The trail to the peak is just 0.6 miles further down the trail from the guard station. From here on out, you’re unlikely to see many other folks aside from backpackers or climbers bound for the glacier. There are several more camps ahead of you: Lewis Meadow at 10.3 miles, Elk Lake at 14.8 or Glacier Meadows at 17.1 miles. Several other smaller sites are sprinkled along the way: sites at miles 12.6, as well as 13.1, 13.2, and 13.3. These smaller sites are not outfitted with toilets or guaranteed water access, but you do need to check in with the ranger to make sure they aren’t already reserved for the night. Space in these is limited. Campsite 12.6 can fit two tents (but is recommended both parties know each other), 13.1 has room for a double tent with no vestibules and 13.2 has room for only a single tent, while 13.3 can accommodate a double tent plus a small single. From any of the sites listed above, it’s possible to make the hike to Blue Glacier in just one day, though anything before Elk Lake makes for quite a long day. Past milepost 12.6 the trail begins gaining elevation. In fact, most of your elevation is gained in the last 5 or so miles of the trail, so be prepared! Climb up to the Hoh Bridge, and gaze down from far above into a canyon carved by a creek feeding the Hoh. Continue on, climbing up and up. In the following three miles, views open up into the valley of glaciers and rivers, all feeding the Hoh. These views are a welcome change from 15 miles of deep rainforest, but keep your eye on the trail! The ground drops away steeply here, and about half a mile from Glacier Meadows camp is a huge washout. This is your final, major obstacle to your destination. Be ready for this crossing, because it can be dicey, particularly with a large backpack on. To navigate the washout: A ladder lies on the slope of the washout closer to you; a separate rope anchored to a tree on the hillside above. the safest way to navigate this is to turn around so your back is facing the washout, grab the rope and pull on it, keeping tension so you can remain standing as you walk backwards down the slope, using the wooden rungs to prop your feet if need be. At the bottom, trail heads off to your right and crosses the rocky wash, then begins climbing back up the other side, to the trail that heads to Glacier Meadows. **note**: To avoid navigating this obstacle with a large pack, consider camping at any of the sites before the washout. As you hike and navigate the washout, you may wonder if a glacier viewpoint is worth all this trouble. It is. But it is 17.5 miles to your first glimpse of the glacier, and another mile to the best viewpoint, which is the Lateral Moraine, not the Terminal Moraine, though it does add nearly one more mile to your approach. But, once you’re there, the viewpoint is a stunner. You’ll want to plan for plenty of time to admire the glacier. Hikers are frequently struck by the majesty of its endless blue-tinged crevasses. The panorama includes a sweeping sight of the entire glacier, from the dome of Olympus to the moraine, a truly spectacular sight. Its possible to spend an hour or more there, basking in the view and exploring the area. On your return to camp, enjoy views of the mountains lining the long valley ahead of you, which houses the headwaters of the Hoh River. Peer at the White Glacier, whose clifflike snout allows a waterfall to go plunging into the outflow from Blue Glacier. In 1812, the two glaciers were merged at Elk Lake. Note how far the glacier has receded in just 200 years, and imagine where it might be in another 20 Blue Glacier is a large glacier located to the north of Mount Olympus in the Olympic Mountains of Washington.[4] The glacier covers an area of 1.7 sq mi (4.4 km2) and contains 580,000,000 cu ft (16,000,000 m3) of ice and snow in spite of its low terminus elevation.[2] The glacier length has decreased from about 3.4 mi (5.5 km) in 1800 to 2.7 mi (4.3 km) in the year 2000.[2] Just in the period from 1995 and 2006, Blue Glacier retreated 325 ft (99 m).[3] Blue Glacier is also thinning as it retreats and between 1987 and 2009 the glacier lost 178 ft (54 m) of its depth near its terminus and between 32 and 48 ft (9.8 and 14.6 m) in the uppermost sections of the glacier known as the accumulation zone.[3] Contents1Description2Hydrology3See also4ReferencesDescription Arêtes and upper Blue GlacierStarting at an elevation of 7,800 feet (2,380 m) near Mount Olympus’s three summits, the Blue Glacier begins as a snow/ice field separated by arêtes.[5] As the glacier flows north, it cascades down a steep slope and thus, the smooth ice turns into a chaotic icefall, replete with seracs and crevasses. After the ice passes the icefall, the glacier ends up in a valley and takes a left turn to the west.[4] Another ice stream from a snowdome located to the northwest of Mount Olympus joins the Blue Glacier and together, the joined ice streams flow down to a cliff at 4,050 feet (1,234 m).[5] On this steep, barren, rocky slope, the Blue Glacier terminates after dropping over 3,700 feet (1,130 m) in only 2.7 mi (4.3 km). The rocky cliff used to host a second icefall before the terminus of Blue Glacier retreated up the cliff.[2] A weather station operated from 1957 to 1963 at an elevation of 6910 ft near the glacier recorded rain and snowfall events, and average temperatures. However, the temperature record is irregular and contains mostly summer months.[6] Nevertheless, at least one snow event occurred in all twelve months during the six years the station was operated. HydrologyDue to orographic lift and the glacier’s proximity to the Pacific Ocean, more precipitation falls on the Blue Glacier than any other glacier in the lower 48 United States. About 180 in (460 cm) of precipitation falls on the upper reaches of Mount Olympus and Blue Glacier each year.[2][7] During winter, most of the precipitation on Blue Glacier consists of snow. In addition, a significant amount of rain falls on the Blue Glacier as well, especially during spring and summer.[2] Because of this high precipitation and the volume of this body of ice, the Blue Glacier contributes a significant amount of water to the Hoh River via Glacier Creek.[8] The Hoh River eventually discharges in the Pacific Ocean after flowing down 34 mi (55 km) through temperate rain forest in Olympic National Park.[2] See alsoList of glaciers in the United StatesEdward LaChapelle Mount Olympus/Blue GlacierA long 17+ mile approach, a glacier with crevasses and bergschrunds, and a Class 4 rock climb with a Class 5 step on loose rocky ramps to the summit of its West Peak. Mount Olympus, in the center of Olympic National Park, is one of the “Five Majors” and a big accomplishment. The approach goes through a true old growth rain forest. Consider adding the Middle and East Peaks for a traverse of Mount Olympus. Mount Tom, Mount Mathias and Mount Mercury are also good additions to an expedition to Mount Olympus. GETTING THEREDrive US-101 through Port Angeles to 12.5 mi south of the town of Forks. Turn east onto the Hoh River Road and drive 19 miles to the end of the road at the Hoh Ranger Station and Campground in Olympic National Park (578 ft). Register here for the climb. APPROACHHike from the Hoh Ranger Station (578 ft) 17.2 mi to Glacier Meadows (4,200 ft). Reach Happy Four Camp (800 ft) in 5.7 miles, the Olympus Guard Station (948 ft) after 9 miles. The trail leaves the Hoh Valley after crossing the Hoh River Bridge (1,400 ft) at 13.2 miles. Reach Elk Lake (2,500 ft) in 15 miles. From here the grade increases to Glacier Meadows. Camp only in established sites. ASCENT ROUTEMOUNT OLYMPUS/BLUE GLACIER (7,965 FT)44 MILES ROUND TRIP WITH 7,400 FEET OF ELEVATION GAIN; DIFFICULTY BASIC GLACIER CLIMBFrom Glacier Meadows, hike way trail 0.8 mi to the top of the Blue Glacier moraine. Turn left and follow way trail along the top of the moraine for 0.2 mi or so before descending onto the Blue Glacier (watch for rockfall while descending). Rope up here. Cross the flat glacier and ascend snow slopes, through and around rock islands, to the crest of the Snow Dome (6,600 ft), keeping left of the biggest rock buttress. Proceed south-southeast through one of two passes left, or far left, of the five-fingered false summit, which is east of the summit, and approach the unseen summit from the east or southeast side. Drop into the sharp saddle between the false summit and the now-visible summit. Climb a steep snow slope (good runout!) to its flat top, at the base of the 80 ft summit rock on its northeast side. There are three ways to finish the climb. A Class 4 route with a Class 5 step that winds across the east face up series of ramps and then up to the summit. Beware of loose rock on ramps and rockfall from above. A very exposed corner should probably be protected with a fixed rope or belays.Descend a few feet west onto the little rocky ridge on the west edge of the summit block. Scramble up 50 ft (easy Class 3) to a large, secure belay ledge. Climb directly up mostly solid rock for 50 ft to the summit. Sseveral moves are Class 5.3-5.4, use 3-4 small-medium cams for protection.Climb ~80 ft directly up the north face, on mostly solid rock (estimated as Class 5.4).MOUNT OLYMPUS TRAVERSE45 MILES WITH 8,100 FEET OF ELEVATION GAIN; DIFFICULTY BASIC GLACIER CLIMBClimb the West Peak of Mount Olympus (7,969 ft). Descend it and proceed to the Middle Peak (7,929 ft) and then on the the East Peak (7,762 ft). Descend to Glacier Meadow via Glacier Pass. MOUNT MATHIAS (7,168 FT) & MOUNT MERCURY (6,950 FT)45 MILES ROUND TRIP WITH 7,000 FEET OF ELEVATION GAIN; DIFFICULTY: BASIC ALPINE CLIMBFor those who have already climbed Mount Olympus and looked around at all the awesome surrounding peaks, Mount Mathias, originally named Apollo, stands out as a seldom climbed peak just west of Glacier Pass. Two routes can used to access the summit: (1) Ascend the steep snow finger between Mount Mathias and Glacier Pass, then climb Class 4 on the ridge to the summit, and (2) Ascend steep gullies to the Mercury-Mathias col, and climb the Class 4 ridge to summit. Mount Mercury is south of Mount Mathias. Ascend to its summit from the Mecury-Mathias col. DESCENT ROUTEMOUNT OLYMPUS/WEST PEAKFrom the same anchor, one may either rappel off the summit block on the north side (double rope), or the northwest edge (single rope, to belay ledge) and descend the climbing route.

NOTESThis climb can be done in either three or four days. Take food for four days.A camping permit and backpacking fee are required, obtainable at the ranger station (or at Wilderness Info CenterIn early season, the summit block may be icy and the east side ramps may be covered in snow or ice. In late season, a moat prevents safe access to the east side ledges. The glacier may break up, especially in the passes, in late season.On popular weekends, the summit block can be very crowded; suggest an early start, like 4-5am.Good tent sites are found in the rocks of the lower Snow Dome, and on top of the Snow Dome, near the Panic Peak (point 6,809 ft) weather station (these are blue bag sites). Bear canisters are required if going beyond Glacier Meadows.If you are going to the Middle Peak of Mount Olympus it needs a new summit register.

Athletes from the entire world take part.Their achievements are watched from both near and far by hundredsof millions of spectators.The five rings on the Olympic flag represent the international natureof the Games.What makes the Olympic Games different from other sports events?The Games are held every four years. They are the largest sporting celebrationin the number of sports on the programme, the number of athletes presentand the number of people from different nations gathered together at the sametime in the same place.The Games are held at intervals, but are part of a broader framework whichis that of the Olympic Movement. The purpose of the Olympic Movementis to promote the practice of sport all over the world and disseminatethe Olympic values. It is in this spirit that the Olympic Games are heldand celebrated.The Summer Games and the Winter GamesThe Olympic Games include the Games of the Olympiad (i.e. the SummerGames) and the Olympic Winter Games. The first edition of the modernSummer Games was held in 1896 in Athens (Greece), and the first OlympicWinter Games in 1924 in Chamonix (France).The word Olympiad designates the four-year period that separates eachedition of the Summer Games.Until 1992, the Summer and Winter Games were held in the same year,but since then, the Winter Games were moved two years from the SummerGames. The Summer and Winter Games continue to be organised onceevery four years.In the Summer Games, athletes compete in a wide variety of competitionson the track, on the road, on grass, in the water, on the water, in the openair and indoors, in a total of 28 sports.The Winter Games feature 7 sports practised on snow and ice, both indoorsand outdoors.The Modern Olympic Games Introduction 3The London 2012 OlympicGames were broadcastall over the world, via thetraditional media as well asonline and mobile platforms.They reached a record audienceestimated at 4.8 billion people.© The Olympic MuseumThe Modern Olympic Games Introduction 4HistoryIt was Pierre de Coubertin of France who dreamt up this ambitious project,although others before him had tried in vain to revive these Games. Drawinginspiration from the ancient Olympic Games, he decided to create the modernOlympic Games. With this purpose, he founded the International OlympicCommittee (IOC) in 1894 in Paris. The new committee set itself the objectiveof organising the first Olympic Games of modern times.The date of the first Games, 1896, marked the beginning of an extraordinaryadventure that has now lasted for over a century!11. OG Athenes 1896. Athletics.Discus Men – Robert GARRETT(USA) 1st.© 1896 / International OlympicCommittee (IOC)© The Olympic MuseumThe characteristicsof the modern OlympicGamesElements of the pastThe roots of the Olympic Games are to be found in Ancient Greece [see sheet“The Olympic Games in Antiquity”], and the first modern Games, in 1896, featuredmany references to this legacy of Greek Antiquity:› The Games were held in Athens, in Greece, the country where the ancient Gameswere held.› Most of the competitions were held in the ancient stadium (the PanathinaikoStadium), which had been restored for the occasion.› Most of the sports on the programme of the ancient Games were includedin the first modern Games.› The organisers invented a race inspired by an event in antiquity: the marathon.Generally speaking, the modern Games strive towards a more peaceful world.The Olympic Truce calling for a halt to all conflicts recalls the concept of the truceobserved during the Ancient Games.Sacred and respected throughout Ancient Greece, the Olympic Truce announcedby messengers before the Games allowed spectators, athletes and officialsto travel to and from Olympia in safety through the numerous battle zones.Today, the Olympic Truce is the subject of a United Nations resolution callingfor a halt to hostilities during the period of the Games and the search for meansof peaceful resolution in areas of tension. The athletes who support this initiativeare invited to sign a “Truce Wall” in the Olympic Village.InnovationsWhile the modern Games draw their inspiration from the past, they are alsoquite different.From the outset, Coubertin proposed:› Secular GamesThe modern Games are secular, unlike the ancient Games which were dedicatedto the gods.The Modern Olympic Games The characteristicsof the modern Olympic Games 5In antiquity, the PanathinaikoStadium in Athens hosted thesports competitions known asthe Panathenaea.The marathonThis race commemorates theexploit of a soldier who, in 490BC, ran from Marathon to tellthe people of Athens of theirvictory in the battle against thePersians, a distance of roughly34.5 kilometres.© The Olympic MuseumThe Modern Olympic Games 6› Games around the globeIn contrast with the Olympic Games of Antiquity, each edition of the modernGames takes place in principle in a different city and country.› Longer GamesIn ancient times, the Games were held first on one day, and finally over five days.Today the official duration is no more than 16 days.The Games are also evolving constantly:› Since 1896, athletes from all over the worldThe ancient Olympic Games were the preserve of free male Greek citizens,whereas the modern Games have always been open to athletes fromall over the world. The 245 participants in Athens in 1896 came from14 different countries.The 1912 Games in Stockholm (Sweden) were the first to boast the presenceof national delegations from the five continents. The universality of the modernOlympic Games was assured.Today, the Summer Games welcome athletes from every country of the world,without exception.› Since 1900, women join inAs in Ancient Greece, there were no female athletes at the first edition of the modernOlympic Games. In Athens in 1896, only men competed. At that time, female athletesfaced many prejudices. People worried that they would lose their femininity,over-develop their muscles or become sterile. They therefore had to overcomethis kind of attitude and gradually take their place at the Games. Women madetheir Olympic debut at the 1900 Games in Paris (France), in tennis and golf.Subsequently, over the course of the century, they gained access to more and moresports (e.g. swimming in 1912, athletics in 1928, volleyball in 1964, rowing in 1976,cycling in 1984 and football in 1996), but it was not until the 2012 Games in London,with the introduction of women’s boxing, that women could compete in all the sportson the programme. Since the 2004 Games in Athens, more than 40 per centof the athletes at the Games have been women.› Since 1924, Games for winter sportsWhen Coubertin revived the Olympic Games, only summer sports were included.In the 1920s, however, snow and ice sports began to enjoy soaring popularity.A number of IOC members decided to react to this, and, in 1924, it was decided11. OG Paris 1900. Tennis, singlesWomen – Hélène PREVOS© 1900 / International OlympicCommittee (IOC)The characteristicsof the modern Olympic Games© The Olympic Museumto hold an International Winter Sports Week in Chamonix (France): 258 athletesfrom 16 countries (mainly in Europe and North America) attended.This proved a great success and, two years later, this “Week” was officially recognisedas the first Olympic Winter Games. The future of an Olympic event dedicatedexclusively to snow and ice sports was assured.At the 2010 Games in Vancouver (Canada), a total of 2,566 athletes cametogether from 82 countries as diverse as Ghana, Brazil, New Zealandand Pakistan.› Since 1984, professional athletes at the GamesThe modern Olympic Games were long open only to amateur athletes, in line withPierre de Coubertin’s wishes. The IOC abolished this rule in 1984 (for the Gamesin Los Angeles), and since then professional athletes have also been able to take part.The rituals of the Opening and Closing CeremoniesThe Olympic Games begin and end with big celebrations, important ceremoniesin which various rituals express the identity of the Games. Today, these rituals are partof the protocol of the Games. They include the following elements:The Modern Olympic GamesOpening of the Games› the entry of the athletes into the stadiumwith their delegations (in alphabeticalorder, except for Greece which goesfirst, and the host country which bringsup the rear)› the declaration of the opening of theGames by the Head of State of the hostcountry› the address by the Games OrganisingCommittee President› the speech by the IOC President› the entry of the Olympic flag intothe stadium› the Olympic anthem› the symbolic release of doves (a symbolof peace)› the oath sworn by an athlete andan official from the host country (respectfor the rules)› the entrance of the flame and lightingof the cauldronClosing of the Games› handing over of the Olympic flagto the next Olympic host city (continuityof the Games)› gathering of the athletes in the stadium(brotherhood)› the extinguishing of the flame› the declaration of the closingof the Games by the IOC President7Most of this protocol had beenestablished by the timeof the 1920 Games in Antwerp(Belgium). It has been addedto over the years as the Gameshave evolved.1. OG London 2012. OpeningCeremony.© 2012 / International OlympicCommittee (IOC) / FURLONG,Christopher1The characteristicsof the modern Olympic Games© The Olympic MuseumThe Modern Olympic Games 8The protocol forms part of a much broader scenography and programme. The openingand closing ceremonies are an invitation to discover the culture of the country hostingthe Games, through music, song, dance, etc.Sport, art and cultureIn Ancient Greece, art and sport were seen as perfect partners. The ideal was to achieveharmony by exercising both the body and the mind.Pierre de Coubertin adopted this ideal for the modern Olympic Games and proposedincluding art and culture in the programme of the Games.On his initiative, architecture, sculpture, painting, literature and music competitionswere part of the Olympic Games from 1912 to 1948.Nowadays, the competitions have been replaced with cultural programmesthat are completely separate from the sports competitions. Plays, concerts, balletsand exhibitions are held in the city, region and even the country hosting the Games.Numerous artists, designers, architects, choreographers and musicians play an activepart in the success of the Games, be it through the construction of stadiums andother competition venues, the Look of the Games (logos, pictograms and mascots)or the opening and closing ceremonies.Whether through sport, art or culture,everyone can take part in the greatcelebration of the Olympic Games,which offer an opportunity to openup to and better understandother people.The characteristicsof the modern Olympic Games© The Olympic MuseumOlympic sports 9Olympic sportsThe Olympic programme includes all the sports in the Olympic Games. The IOCsets the programme and decides which sports will be included. The IOC alsohas the right to add or remove any sport, discipline or event.Sport − For a sport to be made an Olympic sport it has to be governedby an International Federation recognised by the IOCExemples:Swimming at the Games is governed by the International Swimming Federation (FINA);Skating by the International Skating Union (ISU).Discipline − An Olympic sport comprises one or several disciplines.Exemples:Water polo and diving are disciplines of swimming.Speed skating and figure skating are disciplines of skating.Event − A discipline includes one or more events or competitions.An event gives rise to a result for which medals and diplomas are awarded.Exemples:The 10m platform for women is a diving event.The men’s 500m is a speed skating event.Criteria for being an Olympic sportIn order to be included in the Olympic programme, a sport must be governedby an International Federation which complies with the Olympic Charterand applies the World Anti-Doping Code.If it is widely practised around the world and satisfies a number of criteriaestablished by the IOC Session, a recognised sport may be added to the Olympicprogramme.Since 2000, there has been little change to the number of sports on the programmeof the Summer and Winter Games, but rather changes to events in order to limit the sizeof the Games.Summer Games sportsIn Athens in 1896, nine sports were on the programme: athletics, cycling, fencing,The Modern Olympic Games11.

This representeda total of 301 events!The two major sports on the programme of the Summer Games are athleticsand swimming. These are the most widely followed Olympic sports in the world.They also have the largest number of events and greatest number of participantsfrom different countries.Athletics consists of a wide range of events: jumping, throwing, and sprint,middle-distance and long-distance races. Some of these were performedat the ancient Olympic Games: foot races (varying distances), the javelin throw,the discus throw and the long jump.The first swimming competitions at the Olympic Games took place in the sea or in a river. Today competitions take place in a 50m swimming pool, usually indoors.The current programme includes the following disciplines: swimming (freestyle,breaststroke, backstroke and butterfly), water polo, diving and synchronisedswimming.Winter Games sportsWinter sports made their Olympic debut at … the Summer Games in Londonin 1908! Figure skating competitions were organised for men, women and pairs.The experience was repeated at the Antwerp Games in 1920, along with an icehockey tournament.It was in Chamonix in 1924 that winter sports finally got their own OlympicGames. Six sports were on the programme: bobsleigh, curling, ice hockey, figureand speed skating, skiing (cross-country and ski jumping) and the military patrolrace.Some sports were missing from the official programme for several editionsof the Games before being reintroduced. One example is skeleton, which featuredat the 1928 and 1948 Games in St Moritz, before returning to the programmefor the 2002 Games in Salt Lake City.The number of sports at the Winter Games has remained relatively stable overthe years. At the Vancouver Games in 2010, there were seven sports – biathlon,bobsleigh, curling, ice hockey, luge, skating and skiing. However, the numberThe Modern Olympic Games Olympic sports1.

Women made their debutin figure skating at the Olympic Winter Games, but speed skating was not opento them until 1960. Held in the open air until 1956, the skating events now takeplace indoors.Skiing is the sport with the largest number of disciplines. Cross-country skiingis the oldest discipline and snowboarding is the newest one (1998 Gamesin Nagano, Japan). Alpine skiing appeared relatively late: it was on theprogramme of the 1936 Games, but it was not until the 1948 Games inSt Moritz (Switzerland) that a more complete programme for men and womenwas organised. In 1952, giant slalom was added to the programme. Introducedin 1988, the super-G is the newest Olympic Alpine skiing event.Ice hockey, like skating and skiing, is one of the sports that helped launchingthe Olympic Winter Games. Hockey is very popular and attracts large audiences.It is a spectacular sport in which the puck travels at speeds up to 180km/h.Demonstration sportsThanks to their popularity, the Games have provided a showcase for a numberof sports. These were known as demonstration sports, which featured asan addition to the Olympic programme until 1992, when this concept wasabandoned.› At the 1956 Games in Melbourne, there was Australian football, one of the nationalsports;› At the 1988 Games in Seoul, it was bowling, a sport unknown in the host country,Korea.› At the 1992 Games in Barcelona, it was Basque pelota, roller hockey andtaekwondo.There have been many different sports at the Winter Games. Some have beenfeatured as demonstration sports (e.g. skijoring, bandy, winter pentathlon andfreestyle skiing).For more information about the Olympic sports, go to the IOC websiteThe Modern Olympic Games Olympic sports11.

Enormous reserves of willpower and many years of dedicated trainingare required to achieve such a goal. The athletes that qualify for the Gamescan consider themselves as being among the world’s best. They will becomeOlympians, whether or not they win a medal.Taking part in the Games is what matters to the majority of the competitors:having the honour of representing their country and marching behind their flagat the Opening Ceremony, mixing with elite athletes, and having the opportunityto give their best. That is what the spirit of the Olympic Games is all about!Pierre de Coubertin knew this already at the start of the 20th century:“ […] In these Olympiads, the important thing is not winning but taking part.[…] What counts in life is not the victory but the struggle; the essential thingis not to conquer but to fight well.” 2Almost a century later, at the Olympic Games in Sydney, the spirit was the same.Canadian athlete Perdita Felicien explains why taking part in the Games wasso important to her:“Even though I was eliminated in the preliminary round of the 100m hurdles,I would do it all over again in a heartbeat. Even though the months of religioustraining and the exhausting 30 hours of flight to Sydney only meant exactly13.21 seconds of running on the hottest track in the world that day, it wasbeyond worth it.” 3In order to participate in the Olympic Games, athletes have to abide bythe Olympic Charter and the rules of the International Federation (IF)responsible for their sport. The IFs organise qualification events, while the NationalOlympic Committee (NOC) of the athlete’s country is responsible for enteringathletes to the Games.Athletes with more than one nationality may compete for the country of theirchoice. However, if they have already represented one country either at the Gamesor another major sports event, they may not compete for a different countrybefore three years have elapsed.There is no age limit for competing in the Olympic Games, except for the oneWhat is the Olympic Charter?It is an official documentcontaining all the rules to befollowed and explaining the roleand mission of each OlympicMovement stakeholder.1.

Comments made on herathletics team’s website,27 November 2000.1 © The Olympic Museum14 The Modern Olympic Games Athletes at the Olympic Gamesimposed by individual IFs for health reasons. In some sports, such as equestrian,fencing and sailing, athletes can enjoy very long Olympic careers, sometimesas long as 40 years!By entering the Olympic Games, athletes are making a commitment to respectthe Olympic values and agree to undergo doping tests. Throughout the Games,tests are carried out under the authority of the IOC and its Medical Commission.Tests may be conducted before or during the Games.For individual sports, tests are performed on each athlete who places amongthe top five in each event, plus two other athletes (in the heats or the final)chosen at random.For team sports, or other sports in which teams are rewarded, testingis performed throughout the period of the Olympic Games.Life in the Olympic VillageUpon their arrival in the host city, athletes stay in the Olympic Village. While atthe Games, their time is not devoted exclusively to competing: it is alsoan opportunity for them to meet other athletes from different countriesand cultures. Communal life is good for encouraging contact between athletesfrom different sports or representatives from remote countries. All inhabitantsof the Village agree: it is not about the comfort of the surroundings or the qualityof services, what counts is the relationships created between athletesof the entire world.Anita L. De Frantz, Olympian and IOC member, said of her experience in the Village:“For two to four weeks, the Village becomes the home for the elite athletesof the world. It was there that I realised that excellence comes in every shape,size, race and sex. It was there that I realised that an Olympian is one whocan respect every individual based on the effort that it takes to becomean Olympian. It was there that I learned that each sport takes special skillsand determination for a person to ascend to the top.” 2Today’s Olympic Village is almost a city! It is usually located close to thecompetition venues and its construction is taken very seriously during preparationsfor the Games. In London in 2012, for example, the Village accommodatedover 17,000 athletes and officials!Inhabitants of the village benefit from many advantages. They can eat in the Villagerestaurant 24 hours a day, have their hair cut, go clubbing or attend eveningconcerts.When the Games have finished, the Olympic Village becomes a new residentialarea for the city, and the housing is sold or rented to the local population.Athletes have not always benefitted from this type of accommodation.1.

Olympic Message, no. 33,July 1992.1 © The Olympic Museum15 The Modern Olympic Games Athletes at the Olympic GamesBefore the Los Angeles Games in 1932 they stayed in a variety of places:Shipshape accommodationThere was no Olympic Village for the athletes at the first few Olympic Games.Some of them stayed in hotels or hostels. Others chose cheaper accommodationin schools or barracks.And some slept in the boats they had taken to the Olympic city. This was the caseat the Amsterdam Games in 1928, when the Americans, Italians and Finns stayedin the harbour!All in the same villageThe first true Olympic Village was built for the 1932 Games in Los Angeles.Athletes (men only) from 37 countries ate, slept and trained together.For the first time certain community services were provided: a hospital, a fire stationand a post office.In the early days women stayed in hotels, not the Olympic Village. It was not untilthe 1956 Games in Melbourne that the Olympic Village was open to both sexes.© The Olympic Museum16 The Modern Olympic Games VICTORYVictoryThe moment of victory is symbolised by the athlete stepping onto the podiumto receive his or her medal. Yet this ceremony has not always existed!The various elements of the ceremony entered Olympic history at different times.THE MEDAL’S ICONOGRAPHYThe Summer Games medalsIn the beginning, Olympic medals varied from one Olympiad to the next. At the firstmodern Games in Athens in 1896, winners were rewarded with an olive wreathand a silver medal, while the runners-up received a bronze medal and a laurelwreath. Gold, silver and bronze medals were not awarded until 1904.From the Amsterdam Games in 1928, when the medals were standardised,until the 2000 Games in Sydney, the medals remained almost unchanged.The obverse showed a seated, wingless figure of Victory holding a wreath in onehand and a palm frond in the other. In the background appeared an arena similarto the Coliseum in Rome. The reverse had to show a victorious athlete beingborne upon the shoulders of the crowd. Since 1972, only the obverse of the medalremained the same. The reverse was modified for each Olympiad.Then, in 2004, the iconography changed dramatically. A representation of Nikefrom the Olympia Museum now features on the obverse of the summer Gamesmedals. She appears to be descending from the sky to land in the PanathinaikoStadium, recalling the place where the first modern Games were held in Athensin 1896. In the background the Acropolis can be seen.The Winter Games medalsThe Winter Games medals are not subject to the same constraints. There areno rules stipulating a particular shape or design. Even the materials may vary:the medals of the Albertville Games (France) included a crystal disc;the Lillehammer (Norway) medals had a granite element, and the medalsof the Nagano Games (Japan) were partially worked in lacquer. In fact,every Olympic Winter Games has seen an original medal designed.Medal ceremoniesSince the Olympic Winter Games in Lake Placid (USA) in 1932, the medals havebeen awarded on a podium. The winner takes the centre spot, on the higheststep. He or she receives a gold medal and the title of Olympic champion.The second placed athlete is to the winner’s right and receives a silver medal. The1. Athenes 2004, winner’smedal (gold)© IOC1 © The Olympic Museum17third placed athlete is to the winner’s left and receives a bronze medal.The national flags of the three winners are hoisted and the national anthemof the Olympic champion is played.The first eight in each event receive a diploma and their names are read out.Only the first three receive a medal in addition.Celebrity of the championsAfter the Olympic Games, the champions often become superstars and rolemodels for many people. The Olympic Charter stipulates that the namesof the athletes who win a gold medal must be engraved on the wallsof the main stadium in the city hosting the Games.However, a medal is not always a guarantee of celebrity. If it is won in a little knownsport with low media coverage, a medal alone will not suffice to attract the interestof the sponsors or the general public.But whether or not they are winners, everyone who takes part in the Gamestakes home with them the memory of an exceptional human experience.The Modern Olympic Games VICTORY11. OG Vancouver 2010,Medal ceremony for crosscountry ski, 50km Men massstart free.© 2010 / International OlympicCommittee (IOC)© The Olympic Museum18 The Modern Olympic Games The Games and their eraThe Games and their eraThe Olympic Games are much more than just a series of sports competitions.Technological progress in the last century helped turn them into an internationalevent eagerly awaited and followed by people all over the world. Everything thathappens during the Games is reported and analysed by thousands of journalistsand experts. So it is quite understandable that, at certain points in recenthistory, governments have exploited the Games for political or diplomatic ends(sometimes, sadly, to the detriment of sport).Developments in technologyIn little over a century, the Olympic Games have become a global event. Two majortechnological revolutions have contributed to this: in transport and the media.Improved transport – easier access to the GamesDepending on the city and country hosting the Games, athletes are obligedto travel greater or lesser distances. For the 1904 Games in St Louis and the1932 Games in Los Angeles, in the USA, the number of participants was muchlower because many athletes were unable to make and afford such a long journey.The majority of host cities prior to World War II were European, and theathletes who took part in the Games were mostly Westerners.In 1956, the Games took place in Oceania (Australia). For the first time, mostof the 3,178 competitors travelled by plane to Melbourne. This noveldevelopment, which was possible thanks to the growth of air transport, quicklybecame essential to the organisation of the Olympic Games.In 1964 it was the turn of the Asian continent to host the Games, whichwere held in the city of Tokyo in Japan; then, in 1968, it was Latin America,with the Games in Mexico City.The Olympic Games have now been held on every continent except Africa.Development of the media – Games accessible to everyoneTelevision made an enormous contribution to the growing popularity of theOlympic Games. The first tests were carried out in 1936 and 1948. And the firstlive television broadcast of the competitions was in 1956, at the Winter Gamesin Cortina d’Ampezzo (Italy). Beginning with the 1960 Games in Rome (Italy),the majority of the European continent benefited from live broadcasts of thecompetitions. For the United States, Canada and Japan, a tape was flown outevery day, which meant that the competitions could be screened with just a fewhours’ delay. With a couple of weeks’ delay, the images were transferred ontoA long journey − For the 1932Games in Los Angeles, Europeanathletes first had to travel to NewYork by boat. They then crossedthe American continent by trainto Los Angeles (a total travel timeof three weeks!). They returnedthe same way.Some competitors had to saveup their holiday entitlement forthree years in order to have the10 weeks’ leave they needed forthe Olympic adventure!© The Olympic Museum19 The Modern Olympic Games The Games and their erafilm and sent to Asia, Africa, Oceania and South America. The Olympic audienceended up being far larger than just the spectators present in the stadium.Since the 1964 Games in Tokyo (Japan), satellites have transmitted imageswith just a few seconds’ delay. Today, viewers all over the world can followthe champions’ achievements live. In 1968, the Olympic Winter Games inGrenoble (France) were the first to be broadcast live on colour television.Thanks to further technological developments, picture quality has improvedenormously and has reached a high level of perfection. Slow motion shots meanthat an athlete’s movements can be seen in great detail and underwater cameraseven take the audience into the swimming pool with the competitors.Television networks buy broadcasting rights for the Games, thus providingapproximately half of the Olympic Movement’s income. The IOC nonenethelessenables less well-off broadcasters to show coverage of the Olympic Games.This means that sports lovers all over the world can follow the performancesof the champions.This has helped the Olympic Games to become one of the most watchedsporting events in the world!Political and diplomatic exploitation of the GamesBeing at the forefront of the international stage, the Olympic Games havethe potential to be used as a propaganda tool and an instrumentof political interests.Here are some of the better-known examples› 1936 in Berlin (Germany): the Nazi regime appropriated the Games. In the yearsleading up to 1936, several governments and sports organisations expressedtheir concerns about the regime and its policies. The threat of a boycott hungover the Games. In the end, it was more individual convictions that preventedcertain athletes from attending.› 1956 in Melbourne (Australia): the Suez crisis and Soviet oppressionin Hungary provoked a strong reaction from some countries, which refusedto send their athletes to the Games.› 1968 in Mexico City (Mexico): American athletes Tommy Smith and John Carlosdemonstrated against the racism in the USA. As they stood on the podiumto receive their medals for the 200m, they raised black-gloved fists and bowedtheir heads when the American flag was raised. This gesture was their wayof showing their support for the “Black Power” movement which was fightingthe discrimination against black people in the USA. As a result, they weredisqualified.› 1972 in Munich (Germany): Palestinian terrorists took Israeli athletes hostage.What is a boycott? −It is the voluntary severingof relations with a person,country or other groupin order to exert pressure.Boycotts at the Olympic Gamesoccur when a governmentrefuses to allow its athletesto attend the Games.11. OG London 2012,Photographers at the WomenTriathlon© 2012 / International OlympicCommittee (IOC) / FURLONG,Christopher© The Olympic Museum20 The Modern Olympic Games The Games and their eraThe event ended in tragedy, with nine hostages executed and the deathof a policeman and two other members of the Israeli delegation. The terroristswere killed by the police.› 1976 in Montreal (Canada): 22 countries (mostly African) boycotted the Gamesto protest against a recent tour of South Africa, which imposed apartheid,by the New Zealand rugby team.› 1980 in Moscow (Soviet Union): the United States called for a global boycottin response to the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan. American athletes wereforbidden to take part in the Games under threat of having their passportsconfiscated. Other countries followed the US example and stayed awayfrom Moscow.› 1984 in Los Angeles (USA): in response to the American boycott of 1980,the Soviet Union refused to attend the Games. The official reasons givenwere the commercialisation of the Games and insufficient guaranteesof athletes’ safety.The diplomatic role of the GamesIf the Games are used for political ends, the Olympic ideal is placed under threat.Nevertheless, the Olympic Games can be used to improve relations betweencountries and communities.› Since the 1950s, the Olympic Games have provided an opportunity fornewly created countries to show the world they exist. Their appearanceat the Games has often led to more widespread international recognition(e.g. certain African countries, republics of the former Soviet Union).It has even been the case that the participation of certain athletes in the Gameshas preceded the political creation of their country (e.g. Timor Leste, a smallcountry located next to Indonesia, which has been independent since 2002).› The end of the apartheid regime allowed South Africa to participate againin the Olympic Games at the 1992 Games in Barcelona (Spain). The victory lap,hand-in-hand, of Ethiopia’s Derartu Tulu, who won the women’s 10,000 metres,and her South African rival Elana Meyer symbolised this change and becameone of the highlights of these Games.› At the Opening Ceremony of the 2000 Games in Sydney (Australia), SouthKorea and North Korea paraded together under a single flag. This act wasunprecedented since the breakdown in diplomatic relations betweenthe two countries after the Korean War (1950-1953).› Also in Sydney, the status of the Aborigines was front page news, and severalevents were organised to make their claims known. The final stage of the torchrelay was entrusted to Aboriginal athlete Cathy Freeman, and the cultureof the Aboriginal people was a highlight of the Opening Ceremony.11.
