A great ski area with a family friendly environment
Arctic Valley appeals to the Alaskan tele-skier, alpine skier, or rider who wants to feel like they are in the backcountry, but with the safety and convenience of a ski area. Families enjoy the area because it is safe and not crowded, so kids stay in sight and don't get lost. Children who are not skiing yet build snow forts, sled, and enjoy the other kid-friendly activities that parents provide in the sunny, comfortable lodge. A convenient alternative to the backcountry, we are also being discovered by a new generation of skiers and boarders. Arctic Valley is very affordable, making it realistic to run up the mountain and ski for just a few hours.
