The Alta & Snowbird Combination Lift Ticket gives access to over 4,700 skiable acres in the second-best snow region in North America, runner up to Canada's Blackcomb Mountain. Alta and Snowbird, with 204 combined mountain runs, are located in Little Cottonwood Canyon, Salt Lake City's prime snow sports area. The region annually gets 500 inches of the fluffiest snow in the world. Snowbird's vertical drop of 3,240' contributes to Alta/Snowbird's reputation as a 'skier's paradise.' With an aerial tram, four high-speed quads, six double-lifts and two conveyer lifts, Snowbird's uphill capacity is 17,400 skiers and snow-boarders per hour. While Alta is an all-ski (no boarding) mountain, Snowbird offers alpine skiing plus snowboarding on several terrain parks and groomed trails. Both Alta and Snowbird have 65% beginner and intermediate runs. The two mountains are connected by lifts over Mineral Basin, giving skiers easy access between the two with single or multi-day Alta/Snowbird combination lift tickets.
