 Hate snowboarders? Then come to Alta. It's 100% skiers only with deep powder snow, some rugged terrain and spectacular scenery. Alta gets visitors from all over the world. Great beginner and intermediate skier terrain with no snowboarders to fight with, and longer powder stays. Year after year, Alta racks up top awards from all the skier magazines and they deserve it. Voted number one Powder Skiing, number one best destination, number one for best-all-around resort, and best free-skiing terrain. Skiers dream of Alta and the resort welcomes them all with a huge capacity and plenty of high-speed lifts to get back up the mountain. New for Winter 2005 is the summit lodge Watson Shelter complete with ski shop, cafeteria, and a sit-down restaurant at Collins Angle Station. Of course there is still Albion Lodge serving the base mountain.
