If you're not in the know, Alta is one of three remaining ski resorts in the U.S. that prohibits snowboarders, along with nearby competitor Deer Valley and Vermont's Mad River Glen.

I grew up skiing with snowboarders. Visiting Alta felt like a trip inside the death star. The skiing was absolutely fantastic, but I couldn't shed the negative vibes that the place let off. The few interactions I had with people were strange. And the lady in the sticker shop was downright rude to me. Oh well. Great skiing made up for it.
