From First Snow to First Chair ❄️

The fall colors are fading as we welcome our first measurable snowfall of the season, with more on the way this week. With a little help from Mother Nature, we are just 38 days from the start of our 89th winter.

@thogge Possibly, there's another wave of snow on the way. Some of the north-facing higher elevations will likely hang on to some of the snow.

Fall colors are on their way to the Cottonwoods!

If you’re planning a visit to Big or Little Cottonwood Canyon during leaf peeping season, a little planning can help you navigate  traffic and limited parking.

This post is for the dogs🐾

It’s a ruff job but we're thankful for our four-legged friends and the dedicated human handlers who spend their days training hard and roving around Alta’s slopes.

Happy National Dog Day!
