Alta is a skiers-only mountain, one of only three in the United States. The ski area has been operating since 1938 and offers more than 2,600 acres of terrain, 2,538 vertical feet, and averages over 500 inches of snow a season. Utah is famous for the “Greatest Snow on Earth” and Alta is the crown jewel for deep powder. This guide will help you navigate Alta’s terrain, pass options, where to stay, and how to navigate Little Cottonwood Canyon.\n\u003Cbr>\n\n\n## **What Makes Alta Ski Area Different**\n\u003Cbr>\n\nAlta is for skiers only, snowboarding is not permitted on the mountain. This single policy has shaped Alta’s history, culture and the mountain’s entire guest experience. The terrain and fall lines are skied differently, lift lines move a little differently, and the culture is deeply rooted in skiing history, community, and family.\n\nThe mountain started as a silver mining hotbed in the 1870s that became a ghost town by the 1920s. The Forest Service hired Norwegian skier Alf Engen to assess the area for winter sports, and he hand-selected the slopes that became the ski area ([Alta Ski Area](https://www.alta.com/about)). The ski area was founded in 1938 and the first chairlift spun on January 15, 1939.\n\nAlta’s mission is to provide an authentic skiing experience in a natural mountain environment. In practice that means five lifts and a transfer tow connecting the Wildcat and Albion base areas serve all 2,614 acres. Traversing and hiking to reach parts of the mountain is not a gap in the lift plan. It is the design.\n\u003Cbr>\n\n\n## **The Snow: Why Little Cottonwood Canyon Delivers**\n\u003Cbr>\n\nAlta averages more than 500 inches of snow a year, more than most Utah resorts ([Alta Ski Area, Wikipedia](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alta_Ski_Area)). The reason is Alta’s unique location at the top of Little Cottonwood Canyon. Winter storms develop over the Pacific Ocean and head toward the Sierra Nevada Mountains where they drop snow with a high moisture density — often referred to as “Sierra Cement” for those who have skied the Lake Tahoe resorts. The storm clouds dry out crossing Nevada’s Great Basin as they head toward Utah, and dry out even more as they cross the Great Salt Lake. The cold, dry storm then creates light, crystal-type snowflakes that create a fluffy powder that is ideal for skiing. \n\nThat is the whole powder reputation, and it is worth planning around. Check the Alta snow report the night before rather than the morning of, because what happens overnight in this canyon decides both your ski day and your drive.\n\u003Cbr>\n\n\n## **Terrain at Alta Ski Resort**\n\u003Cbr>\n\nAlta’s base sits at 8,530 feet and the summit reaches 11,068 feet, a vertical gain of 2,538 feet across 118 named runs. The terrain breaks down at roughly 15 percent beginner, 30 percent intermediate and 55 percent advanced.\n\nAlta reads as an expert mountain, but offers ample options for intermediate and beginner skiers:\n\n* Beginner Skiers: Albion Basin’s rolling terrain provides mellow groomed runs like Crooked Mile and Home Run, with the new Sunnyside six-person chair providing dedicated lift-service to the beginner area. Two magic carpets at Albion Base\n\u003Cbr>\n* Intermediate Skiers: Sugarloaf, Supreme and Collins lifts all offer long, intermediate groomed runs and access to deep powder without a challenging traverse or hike. Ballroom is a favorite open bowl that provides a good introduction to Alta’s storied traverses.\n\u003Cbr>\n* Experts: This is where Alta shines - Alf’s High Rustler is one of the most iconic runs in the Wasatch, along with Eagle's Nest, Gunsight and for those who enjoy a hike, the Baldy Chutes. Devil’s Castle and Catherine’s Area offer “choose your own adventure” off-piste skiing for those who don’t mind a longer traverse or hike.\n\u003Cbr>\n\n### **Reading the Alta Ski Resort Trail Map**\n\u003Cbr>\n\nPick up an [Alta ski resort trail map](https://www.visitutah.com/places-to-go/utah-ski-resorts/alta-ski-area) before first chair rather than after. Alta has two base areas, Wildcat and Albion, linked by a transfer tow, and much of Alta’s signature terrain reached by traverse or a hike from the top of a lift. The map is how you find out that the run you want is a ten-minute sidestep from a lift you have already ridden past.\n\u003Cbr>\n\n\n## **Alta Lift Tickets and Ski Passes Explained**\n\u003Cbr>\n\nBuy your [Alta lift tickets](https://www.alta.com/tickets-and-passes) online. Window rates run higher than online rates, peak pricing applies on weekends and through the holiday periods, and Alta is typically one of the last major resorts to publish rates for the coming winter. Beyond the full-day ticket there are afternoon and late-afternoon options, a Sunnyside at 3 ticket for the beginner lift, and prepaid cards: the Power Card rolls unused days over and is transferable, the 10 Day Card does not roll over, and the Gold Card discounts every lift ticket. Alta offers season passes and family passes that include benefits at other Wasatch resorts.\n\u003Cbr>\n\n### Alta-Bird: Skiing Alta and Snowbird on One Pass\n\u003Cbr>\n\nThe [Alta-Bird pass](https://www.alta.com/tickets-and-passes/alta-bird) covers both Alta and neighboring Snowbird: 5,114 acres, 20 lifts, 256 runs and 3,240 vertical feet with no blackout dates. It exists as both a season pass and a day pass.\n\nThe two mountains connect on snow. From Alta you reach Snowbird via Sugarloaf Pass into Mineral Basin, or by taking the Westward Ho traverse to Snowbird's Who Dunnit, and shuttles run between the resorts through the season ([Visit Utah](https://www.visitutah.com/places-to-go/utah-ski-resorts/alta-ski-area)). If you are skiing back into Alta from the Snowbird side, you need skis and a ticket that covers both mountains before you pass the gate.\n\n### The Ikon Pass at Alta\n\u003Cbr>\n\nAlta has been an [Ikon Pass](https://www.alta.com/Ikon) partner since the pass launched for the 2018 to 2019 season. The full Ikon Pass gives seven days shared between Alta and Snowbird with no blackout dates. The Ikon Base Pass and Session Passes are not valid at Alta, though Base holders can get 25 percent off an Alta day ticket at the window. Alta also participates in the Mountain Collective.\n\nOne thing worth stating plainly: Alta is not on the Epic Pass. If you ski Vail, Beaver Creek, Park City or Whistler on Epic, that pass does not work in Little Cottonwood Canyon.\n\n\n## **Getting to Alta: Little Cottonwood Canyon**\n\u003Cbr>\n\nAlta is accessed by Utah State Route 210, and the canyon can be one of the more challenging parts of an Alta trip to navigate. Three things to plan for:\n\n* Parking reservations are required Friday through Sunday and during holiday periods, from 8 a.m. to 1 p.m. Week-of reservations are released Sundays at 3 p.m. Mountain Time.\n\u003Cbr>\n* [Utah’s Department of Transportation](https://cottonwoodcanyons.udot.utah.gov/traction-law/) (UDOT) requires traction devices on all vehicles in Little Cottonwood Canyon during winter weather events. When traction law is in effect, vehicles must be AWD/4WD with approved M+S, M/S or 3PMSF tires. 2WD vehicles must have chains, snow socks or 3PMSF tires..\n\u003Cbr>\n* UTA provides a ski bus to Little Cottonwood Canyon. The bus alleviates parking and traction requirements and is worth considering for storm days or if you’re staying outside the canyon.\n\u003Cbr>\n\n### What Interlodge Means for Your Stay\n\u003Cbr>\n\nInterlodge is a Town of Alta ordinance that prohibits outdoor travel during periods of high avalanche hazard and during avalanche mitigation work. When it is called, you stay inside a building. You cannot walk to your car, and you cannot wait it out in your vehicle. Violations are a Class B misdemeanor, and more to the point, a single violation pauses mitigation work and delays the canyon reopening for everyone ([Powder](https://www.powder.com/how-to/tips-visiting-alta-ski-area)).\n\nThis is not an edge case. More than 50 buildings and 76 percent of the road through Snowbird and the Town of Alta sit in avalanche paths, and the [UDOT Cottonwood Canyons](https://cottonwoodcanyons.udot.utah.gov/avalanche-information/) manages all avalanche closures and interlodge orders. Most interlodge orders last hours. Some have run for days.\n\nIt is also the clearest argument for staying in a home rather than a room. If the canyon closes and you are held indoors for an afternoon, the difference between a base lodge and a private residence with a full kitchen, space to spread out and a team you can reach is the difference between an inconvenience and a ruined day. Your stay should hold up on the days the mountain weather does not cooperate.\n\u003Cbr>\n\n\n## **Alta Ski School and Skiing Alta With Family**\n\u003Cbr>\n\nThe [Alf Engen Ski School](https://www.alta.com/ski-school) teaches every level, private and group, and the beginner terrain is centralized near the Albion base rather than scattered across the mountain, which keeps a mixed-ability group within reach of each other. The Alta Children's Center offers licensed childcare for ages two months to ten years old.\n\u003Cbr>\n\n## **When to Ski Alta**\n\u003Cbr>\n\nThe season generally runs late November to late-April, with peak accumulation from December through March. Alta averages well over 140 operating days, though the exact opening and closing dates are adjusted annually for snow. Lifts run from 9:15 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., with the higher elevation lifts, Supreme and Sugarloaf closing slightly earlier.\n\n**Local Tip:** Spring skiing at Alta is some of the region’s best. Longer days, fewer crowds and early spring storms provide incredible skiing.\n\u003Cbr>\n\n\n## **Where to Stay at Alta**\n\u003Cbr>\n\nAlta is a small town, and lodging is limited by design. Our [Alta luxury vacation rentals](https://invitedhome.com/alta-luxury-vacation-rentals) are private residences rather than lodge rooms, prepared to the standard of a five-star hotel and hosted by a Utah team that lives in the area.\n\n[The Pinnacle at Powder Ridge](https://invitedhome.com/vacation-rental/usa/ut/alta/powder-ridge/the-pinnacle-at-powder-ridge/unit) sleeps 10 across three bedrooms in 4,444 square feet, with floor-to-ceiling windows framing the Wasatch, a private media room, a steam room and easy access to Alta’s Wildcat base area.\n\u003Cbr>\n\nFeature Pinnacle location\n\nIf your group needs more inventory or a shorter drive from the airport, our [Park City](https://invitedhome.com/park-city-luxury-vacation-rentals) and [Deer Valley](https://invitedhome.com/deer-valley-luxury-vacation-rentals) homes sit within an hour of Little Cottonwood Canyon.\n\n\n\n","white",{"id":1151,"slug":1147,"text":1152,"title":11,"subtitle":11,"bgcolor":1149,"combined":37,"image":900,"cta":900},"BjyWEE1YQ0OSRn7fYkKUNg","## **Frequently Asked Questions**\n\u003Cbr>\n\n### Can you snowboard at Alta Ski Area?\n\nNo. Alta is a skiers-only mountain and restricts lift access to skis, on the mountain and around the base areas. Snowbird is adjacent to Alta and allows snowboarding.\n\n\n### Is Alta on the Epic Pass or the Ikon Pass?\n\nIkon. Alta has been an Ikon partner destination since the 2018 to 2019 season, and the full Ikon Pass covers seven days shared between Alta and Snowbird. The Ikon Base Pass is not valid at Alta. Alta is not on the Epic Pass.\n\n\n### How much snow does Alta Ski Area get?\n\nAn average of over 500 inches a season, driven by a Little Cottonwood Canyon microclimate that produces high-volume, low-moisture snow.\n\n\n### How big is Alta Ski Area?\n\n2,614 acres and more than 115 runs, from a base of 8,530 feet to a summit of 11,068 feet, a vertical of 2,538 feet. On the Alta-Bird pass, Alta and Snowbird together come to 5,114 acres, 20 lifts and 256 runs.\n\n\n### How far is Alta from Salt Lake City?\n\nAbout 25 miles southeast, at the top of Little Cottonwood Canyon on State Route 210, roughly 45 minutes from Salt Lake City International Airport in normal conditions. Storm days take longer.\n\n\n### Do I need a parking reservation at Alta?\n\nYes, Friday through Sunday and during holiday periods from 8 a.m. to 1 p.m. Week-of reservations release Sundays at 3 p.m. Mountain Time. Check UDOT for current requirements before you drive up.\n\n\n### What is interlodge at Alta?\n\nA Town of Alta ordinance requiring everyone to stay inside a building during high avalanche danger and avalanche mitigation. It is a legal order, not a recommendation, and it applies to your vehicle as well. Most orders last a few hours.\n\n\n## **Planning Your Alta Ski Trip**\n\nAlta rewards people who plan. Buy tickets online, know whether your pass actually works here, check UDOT before you drive the canyon, and pick up the trail map before you ride. Do that and you get 2,614 acres of the best powder in the country with no snowboarders.","alta-ski-area",{"_seconds":1155,"_nanoseconds":1156},1785463212,3000000,{"data":1158,"body":1160,"excerpt":-1,"toc":1639},{"title":11,"description":1159},"Alta Ski Area sits at the top of Utah’s Little Cottonwood Canyon, 25 miles from Salt Lake City and roughly 45 minutes from the airport.
