Alta is the powder mecca of North America: a skier-only mountain founded by the US Forest Service in 1938, hidden at the top of Little Cottonwood Canyon, buried under 14 meters of snow a year. The lodges are deliberately old-school, the locals divide themselves between Wildcat and Sunnyside, and snowboards have never been welcome.

Snow report FAQ

How fresh is the snow data?+

The current conditions and 7-day forecast are pulled from Open-Meteo (ECMWF, MeteoFrance, DWD and Met Norway models combined) and cached for 30 minutes. Numbers reflect conditions at the resort's latitude and longitude.

What does fresh snow mean?+

The amount of snow that has accumulated over the previous 24 hours, separate from the daily forecast for the next 7 days.

Why is current snow lower than the seasonal average?+

Snow depth varies day by day. Our seasonal average is an indicative monthly target based on altitude and historical reliability. The live number is what is actually on the slopes today.
