A steep technical line that is very rarely skied
Powder snow and varied terrain just a stone’s throw from Salt Lake City.
Renowned for their perfect powder and long winter seasons, Alta and Snowbird are top of the list for skiing in Utah. There’s thousands of acres of diverse terrain to explore, from forests to large open spaces, steep chutes, and runs of all levels of difficulty.
A family-run ski area since 1938, Alta is smaller, older, and more quaint than its neighboring ski resort Snowbird. Snowboarders will need to stick to Snowbird, as Alta is strictly skiers only.
The epic views, easy accessibility, and excellent snow conditions are unfortunately no secret. Skiers flock from across the state to enjoy this slice of skiing paradise. Get up early to avoid the crowds, and even earlier if there’s been a big dump of snow the night before!
