Alta /Albion basin is my favorite place to hike or ski in the Wasatch. All that's missing is an alphorn. And apfelstrudel.

We love skiing at Alta! I have also taken two adult lessons and they have been great! It was the best deal I could find and did not disappoint. Skiing at Alta is a must if coming to Utah in the winter time! We got the ikon pass and have used it mostly at Alta this season!!

Fantastic ski area. Snow was incredible. Great service at rentals, easy and convenient, plenty of lockers to store your things, and good options for food and drinks. Expensive all around but worth it. Difficult to reach Alta without a car but there are excellent shuttle services to/from the airport that are very reliable.
