The Sunnyside lift at Alta is good for beginners and enables skiers to ride up the mountain and then gives them over a mile (1.6 km) of great learning terrain back to the bottom. Sunnyside Lift provides access to long gentle slopes in the Albion Basin, ideal for beginners and those just learning to ski. Adventurous skiers may find some shorter intermediate trails through the trees. If you are planning on teaching a child or friend to ski for the first time, start on Alta's rope tows which, are free all day long, and when ready, move over to the Sunnyside Lift. Sunnyside Lift is a detachable triple making it easy to get on and off the chair.
