Group of snowcats parked above Alta Ski Area Video.

I found this group of snowcats on a cross country ski adventure above Alta Ski Area in Utah. These machines all looked great! I think their owners park them here for when they need to get to their backcountry houses. What a nice surprise to find these cats! Made me want to have mine there.

I enjoyed seeing these--hope you will too!

I went back there cross country skiing again today. This snowcat passed me. I think it was a Spryte. Maybe the slightly newer version. This is a snowcat zone--today there were seven cats parked where I took the video yesterday. There has been six and a half feet of snow here so far this year!

That's pretty cool to see all the private cats lined up along the road. Something you don't usually see, at least not around here. One or two, maybe, but mostly parked snowmobiles.

It was really great to stumble on this group of snowcats. I went back yesterday again but wasn't fast enough getting my camera out to get an Imp driving by. It looked like another cat was standing ready to go but I didn't see anyone ready to run it. I'll go back today again to see if there is any action. It appears that these snowcats are used regularly.

I see quite a few production ski slope groomers--usually at a distance though. I'm sure I will get some video at some point.
