Alta Ski Resort and Lodging Options Our Locals Favorite! Over 500 inches of dry fluffy powder each year make Alta the Best Skiing Anywhere. Known since 1938 as a "locals' favorite", ALTA attracts skiers from around the world. Long ago, glaciers created giant bowls as they receded from the headwaters of the canyon. It is almost as if nature wrote the ideal blueprint for ALTA - generously carving out a playground for beginner, intermediate and expert skiers! ALTA is recognized not only for its variety of terrain, but also for its stunning scenery, quality of dry snow and absence of snowboarders. ALTA is a skiers’ mountain. ALTA is located at the top of Little Cottonwood Canyon. Alta Ski Resort Info Season: Appx. November 20th through mid April. Base Elevation: 8,530 ft. / 2,600 m.

Alta Ski Resort Official Website Alta Ski Resort Lodging in Salt Lake City Utah Discounted rates for hotel rooms throughout Salt Lake City for Alta Ski Resort, Snowbird Ski Resort, Brighton Ski Resort and Solitude Ski Resort. Back in 1998 we added the global reservation option of World Choice Travel. They are the backbone of Travelocity, without the nightly reservation fee that Travelocity requires. They are also the largest and safest way to book discounted hotel rooms on-line and they have proved to be a helpful and viable option for our visitors! In fact, this global reservation service helps people reserve over 7.5 million hotel rooms each year! The hotels are tied into these systems for real-time guarantees of pricing and availability without the travel agents commissions. Each Salt Lake hotel listed has a complete information page with pictures, amenities and maps. Once you decide on a particular hotel, then you can check availability and discounted rates. Another reason why we list this global system is because it lets you view every hotel by price, by availability, by amenities, and even by star ratings if you prefer, and at the same time showing you the lowest price for every search. If you prefer one hotel over another like the Marriott over a Holiday Inn, it lets you reserve with your favorite hotel chain. We feel it is the best system available because it saves you time, and if you prefer it, will save you money! The reason why we stopped offering links to Expedia and Orbitz options are because they require people to pay additional Nightly Service Fees ( or Opti-Fees as they are known in the industry ) and we don't feel you should have to pay these fees. These added service fees are shown at the time of booking and increase their commissions earned. We don't play that game! We instructed our hotel booking service to eliminate these fees for our visitors. All Salt Lake City Hotels Check by Availability, Amenities and Lowest Rates. Save Up To 70% Off Your Hotel Room.
