Ski Season
Alta Ski Resort offers 2,614 skiable acres, 119 designated runs, 10 lifts, 547″ of annual snowfall (748″ was the record, in 1981-82 season), and many off-piste areas to explore. There is also plenty of terrain for all ability levels, so whether you are planning on learning how to ski, fine-tuning techniques, or an avid powder hound, Alta is the place to ski!
Alta is the oldest resort in Utah operating, since 1938. Oldtimer “Altaholics” love the unpretentious vibe, where people focus on skiing and sharing their stories in one of the traditional lodge pubs over a frosty brew.
ABOUT THE RESORT
The resort is also one of Utah’s skiing only resorts (snowboarders not permitted), in addition to Deer Valley. Alta is known for its unique geographical location at the back of Little Cottonwood Canyon that traps snowstorms until they dry up, boasting the deepest annual average of snowfall in Utah. Did we mention, Alta is a great mountain for hike-to terrain and offering boundary gates to access the backcountry?!?
