Beyond The Après

Getting "Twiskey" at the Sitzmark

Walk into the famous Sitzmark Club at The Alta Lodge and odds are you will find long-time bartender and our guest Dan Withey. Withey started his ski career avoiding rusty farm equipment while shredding the mighty slopes of Wisconsin. Then one fabled visit to Alta changed his life's trajectory for good. Now he's a legendary bartender at one of Alta's most famous après-ski bars and a pro skier with multiple magazine covers under his belt. Withey's ski bum tale is as old as time, with one small caveat...he actually made it. He also makes a mean "Boomerang" which will definitely warm you up and get your "twiskey." Join us on this episode as we take a deep dive into his journey as a skier and bartender in one of North America's most popular resorts.
