Hello Alta Powder Hounds... Alta Powder News Returns It's all about the communication. Giving our skiers and employees what they need to know. A few years ago, Alta Powder News went into hibernation with the passing of Will and Jean Pickett, its founders and editors for 25 years. Now we have new ways of production and dissemination and feel it is time for the Alta Powder News to resurface. Hopefully, you will find something helpful in this early winter edition. Look for the "Alta Powder News" Banner seen below on our homepage Alta Powder News: http://www.alta.com/pages/pownews1.php Opening Update: Alta opens Friday, November 30, at 9:15 am! Traditionally Alta opens with more snow than we have today. Mother Nature hasn't given us much snow lately, but the tireless efforts of our snowmaking, grooming and mountain crews have us ready to open this Friday, November 30, with the Collins and Sunnyside detachable lifts. The Collins lift opening will primarily be on a top-to-bottom run that is 8200' long, covers 11 acres and spans 1800 vertical feet.Skiing on Sunnyside will start out with the 6000' long Crooked Mile trail covering 7 acres and spanning 800 vertical feet. These openings will broaden as we get more of the "Greatest Snow on Earth." -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Links: Alta Powder News: http://www.alta.com/pages/pownews1.php Alta Homepage: http://www.alta.com Alta Snow Report: http://www.alta.com/pages/report.php Alta Mountain Cams: http://www.alta.com/pages/mtncam.php Alta Pic of the Day: http://www.alta.com/pages/pod.php Alta Ski Area Alert Alta Ski Area PO Box 8007 Alta, UT 84092 www.alta.com info@alta.com
