In addition to the overview provided here, please also see our review of Alta. Alta is located in Little Cottonwood Canyon in the Wasatch Cache National Forest which is is about 45 minutes driving time east of Salt Lake City. Alta offers terrain and snow conditions for all levels of skiers and is one of the few remaining ski resorts in the world that prohibits snowboarders. Alta is an experience set apart from the rest and is noted for some of the best snow conditions and terrain in the world. Established in 1871, Alta is one of the oldest resorts in North America. It was predominantly a mining town, but grew rapidly adding a post office and restaurants. A fire destroyed Alta in 1878 followed by an avalanche in 1885. The town was never completely rebuilt and eventually brought mining to a halt in the early 1900’s. The Forest Service had a growing interest in the area for skiing, and development of the resort began in 1937, building the Alta Lodge and adding the first chairlift. Additional chairlifts and lodges have been added over the years, making Alta what it is today. Alta offers a limited range of facilities for visiting skiers and snowboarders. Alta offers great services to skiers and snowboarders such as rentals, transport to lifts and slopeside accommodation. Note: This page only contains ski accommodation information.
