Why Alta Receives So Much Snow - The Flakes Podcast
In this week's episode of The Flakes Podcast, BA, Evan, and Powderchaser Steve discuss the nuances of the current weather pattern across North America, why California hasn't received significant snow, the upside-down snow quality during the December 1-3 storm cycle for the West, why Alta gets so much snow, and more.
The Flakes Podcast is sponsored by Alta Ski Area. There are few precious places in the world like Alta, an independently-owned ski area since 1938. Nestled at the top of Little Cottonwood Canyon deep in the Wasatch mountains, Alta is a skier’s-only mountain, known around the globe for its powder skiing. With an annual snowfall average of 538 inches, powder days are a way of life here. Visit Alta.com to learn more.
