Alta Ski Area, Utah USA Ski Resort

Alta and pure, unspoiled skiing are indeed synonymous.  Alta's wide variety of terrain, breathtaking alpine scenery and superb snow conditions combine to create a unique setting for unforgettable outdoor experiences with family, friends and the mountain itself. Alta becomes a place where visitors have all the time in the world to feel both a sense of serenity in a pristine alpine environment as well as sense of excitement and fun in being outdoors in the clean mountain air. Alta continues to offer a ski-only experience.

Alta Ski Area will continue to offer guided snow cat skiing and boarding in Grizzly Gulch, located adjacent to the ski area. Your day starts with check-in at the Albion base area, followed by an orientation and continental breakfast at the Albion Grill. When ready, board the heated cabin of our custom snow cat for the ride to the top of Grizzly Gulch to an elevation of 10,500 feet. The guided runs take skiers and boarders on runs with an average of 1500 feet of vertical drop on approximately 325 acres.
