In a recent article titled “Feds approve master plan for Utah’s Alta Ski Resort calling for controversial upgrades,” quotes from Carl Fisher, executive director of Save Our Canyons, indicate that he is either ignorant of what is happening in Alta or intentionally spreading incomplete information to support his cause.
Fisher claims the ski area is doubling down on the destruction of wetlands in our watersheds and referenced the wetland disturbance associated with the replacement of the Supreme and Cecret lifts during the summer of 2017. Alta Ski Area works closely with the Forest Service to minimize and mitigate the impact of projects on the environment.
