Bling! Alyeska spring views are shiny

Alyeska ski resort in Girdwood, Alaska is undoubtedly one of the spring skiing capitals of North America.

They’ve got a lot to offer that other resorts cannot even TOUCH.

ALYESKA’S UNTOUCHABLE SPRING SKIING:

– Open from 11am – 6pm (so you can party late, wake up late, and start partying again while skiing)

– Stunning views of Turnagain Arm & the Legendary Chugach Mountains

– Watch 25 foot tidal swings transform the Arm from mudflats to ocean bay

25 foot tidal swing in Turnagain arm yesterday

– Beer served on the upper mountain until 4:30pm

– Sunset at 10:15pm…

Sunrise/Sunset time for early May in Girdwood, AK

– Partying and BBQs in “The Nest” in-bounds at Alyeska until 6pm (photo/description not permitted)

the lifties get the spring thing

– Big Hair Rock blasting from boom boxes at the base of every lift

– Lifties in Big Hair costume Rocking Out to said Big Hair Rock 

BBQing patrollers get it

– Zero lift lines

– Friendly Alaskans

Classic rock blasting in the lift line for FREE!

– An “in your face” Bra Tree with obvious current additions and strong variety (is that a girdle in there?)

The “in your face” bra tree gets it

– Easy to understnad parking lot signage

It appears the Alaskans are attempting to communicate with us...

 

more alaskan communication

The overall experience of skiing in Alaska is a bucket list must.  You do not want to go to Alaska and miss out on Alaska’s only true ski town:  Girdwood.  The place is funky, real, overly natural, and well vibed.

The GNAR gets it

The locals are classic American ski freaks…so you’ll communicate easily.
