"Celebrating the 70th anniversary of Alta Ski Resort, this new KUED documentary transports viewers to a mountain town with a history richer than its silver-mining past."

Overview

It is one of the oldest ski areas in the United States, and arguably one of the most beautiful. Alta, located at the head of Little Cottonwood Canyon in Utahs Wasatch mountain range, officially became a ski area in 1939, and is now one of the country stop skiing destinations. But how Alta came to be is where the real story lies. From miners and loggers to publishers and mayors to Olympians and engineers meet the people behind Alta with historical footage and present-day interviews in The Alta Experience, previously seen on public television. See film of Alf Engen, the champion ski jumper who first recommended Alta become a ski area and, later, developed powder skiing. And watch vintage movies of the area s first skiers.
