Overview
 Alta’s Alf Engen Ski School carries the name of its founder, skiing legend Alf Engen. Alf and his wife Evelyn began teaching at Alta in 1948, just after Alf had completed his term as US Olympic Ski Team Coach. Alf pioneered techniques to ski Alta’s deep powder snow, and was a strong influence in the formation of the Professional Ski Instructors of America
(PSIA).
Alta’s Diamond Challenge Workshop will take top-level skiers on an exciting and challenging all-mountain experience. Not ready for the steep & deep? Take an introductory Off-Trail or Mogul Workshop. Want to polish upon the groomed runs? The Parallel Workshop would be just right. For the skier who is just getting started, the wide-open green runs in the Albino Basin are perfect.
If you have children who want to learn how to ski, the Alf Engen Ski School has programs that allow every child to have the best possible learning experience. The ski school offers children’s Ski Adventures to children ages four through early teen, of all skill levels. Alta’s goal is to give children the skills for a lifelong enjoyment of skiing. Participants can choose a two-hour adventure, a full-day mini adventure that combines skiing, lunch and childcare, or an all-day adventure that includes lunch. The all day Mountain Explorers offers five hours of Skiing and lunch to children ages seven through early teens who are competent skiers
