Dave Van Dame is an Alta Ski Area regular that has held a season pass at the ski area for the last 48 years.
He doesn’t own a car, he rides the local UTA bus to reach Alta, skis almost every day, and looks like he still wears the same jacket from 1990.
He’s what I aspire to be like at 73 years old.
Check out this great visual story told by Sweet Grass Productions and Alta Ski Area about their resident snow farmer.
We should all be more like Dave.
