[VIDEO] Soul of Alta | A Short Film from Alta and Sweetgrass Productions

Brent Thomas |

When I saw there was a new short film from Alta and Sweetgrass Productions titled Soul of Alta, I knew I would have to take time to watch it. Alta is a unique mountain that only allows skiers, has some of the greatest snow on earth, and possess a unique culture. The film is less than 22 minutes and highlights what makes the ski area special and has some pretty awesome powder skiing.

Here’s what the film’s webpage has to say about it.

The Soul of Alta is a film that sets out to answer the question “What is Alta?”

The beauty of that question is that there is no singular answerโ€”Alta is a place that represents something unique to each of us. The snow, the Alta community and the spirit of the mountain hold onto each of us in different ways.

Alta Ski Area and Sweetgrass Productions bring you a short film that explores the intersection of people and powder skiing throughout Altaโ€™s 86-year history. This film serves as a refresh from the short-form attention-seeking reels that are commonplace in our media landscape. Theย Soul of Altaย is meant to be a coffee table pieceโ€”an ode to Altaโ€”revisiting the past 86 years of skiing. Cozy up by the fireplace, warm up your favorite mug and immerse yourself in the history of Alta, deep powder skiing sequences from last winter’s record-settingย 903-inchย winter, connect with Alta’s natural mountain environment and reconnect with the mountain and the sport that we all love.
