| Alta People Alta attracts hardy, passionate, athletic people. More than most areas the people that work at Alta are the rugged individualist types. Nothing fancy, low on flash, these are people big on substance. At Alta its all about the real deal; how many days on the mountain, how fast in the chutes, how deep the powder and making it to the party. Long live Alta! |

| Onno Weiringa Onno is the mountain manager, a solid citizen. When my son and I showed up in January and I started asking around everyone said the same thing - you need to talk to Onno. Well we did and when he saw the paintings he said, "We've never had an art show on the mountain before. Let's try it." Thanks for the show Onno! |
