 Utah's original ski resort |
State Highway 210 (P.O. Box 8007) Salt Lake City, UT 84092 United States +1 801 359 1078 / +1 801 572 3939 http://www.altaskiarea.com |
Proud of its inexpensive lift tickets, long-held ski traditions and ski-anywhere policy, this friendly property is a favorite among Salt Lake City locals. Although snowboarding is not allowed and slower lifts can lengthen holiday lift lines, locals prefer the resort for its high-altitude powder and pine-covered alpine terrain. Beginners praise the high percentage of easy runs, while advanced skiers appreciate the ski-anywhere policy. Check website for prices and further details. Review © 2007, Wcities |
