Good for beginners

This is a great slope to start on, but you outgrow the hill eventually. There hasn't been a whole lot of snow there latley, and there are only a few runs open. It's still fun to go and it's more convenient than driving to Alyeska...More

Great beginner or easy-goer spot

Great place to learn how to ski since it's not usually really crowded. The small hill is a little icier than other spots you can go but it's a nice height and offers good deals for rentals and a small lodge to warm up in.

Close to Anchorage and lots of fun

Beautiful when it's snowy or in the summer. Good place for a beginner to learn to ski or if you just want to spend a few hours snow boarding

The closest & cheapest ski area in town

Not a fancy one, but this will serve you right if you want to ski/snowboard. Small chalet & parking area, be there early..otherwise difficult to get a parking spot & seating spot in the chalet. Not so many trails to try, but I like the...More

For a quick ski.

Hilltops biggest strength is its location right in Anchorage, its facilites are pretty good too. But it is to damn flat, and short especially for snow boarding. Here in Alaska we have the best mountains in the world, so this place does not dazzle.

Fun

It is great fun for all ages. And it is right there so the travel time in minor. If you are a great skier it is not for you but if you want to get outside for a while it is perfect.
