TR: Alta through the eyes(or skis) of a 6 year old

This forum was very helpful in 09 with counsel on Lech-Zurs, we went there. This January, my boy went to Alta, Utah. Here is a film chronicling his experience. Its quite a place, has something for everyone, and for kids, they can literally create their own trails. The quality of the snow is the best I have seen, and we were'nt there when their was heavy powder, that is later in the spring, we were told. Plus this is a low snow year for Little Cottonwood Canyon or most of that part of Utah, but their low snow conditions are better than most places on the planet.

Here is the movie: (note its 9 mins long)


Its 9mins long. Alta is a storied place, rustic, but the folks at the Alta Lodge were great with my boy, and lots of kids there. Dad is an intermediate skiier, son is way ahead of him

Alta is just 25 miles southeast of Salt Lake City at the top of Little Cottonwood Canyon, is only 45 minutes away from the Salt Lake City International Airport. Whether the skier is a novice or an expert, Alta Ski Area provides all levels of skiers the access to everything they need,including variety of slope side lodging options.

after a week in Arinsal that powder has made me turn green ...He's doing well and enjoying it.. a future Body!
