Photos: Opening day at Arctic Valley Ski Area

Arctic Valley Ski Area opened for the first time this season on Saturday morning, Jan. 31, 2015. Two chair lifts and the T-bar lift took skiers and snowboarders to the ridges near Rendezvous Peak. John Robinson-Wilson, general manager of the ski area, said he expects they'll be able to continue to operate on weekends until mid-April. The ski area is operated by volunteers from the Anchorage Ski Club.
