Alta Marshall

[N7YUO]

For the benefit of members who are not from Utah:
The Town of Alta, at the top of Little Cottonwood Canyon
has a Town Marshall.
I seem to remember that around the time of the 2002 Winter Olympics,
we locals had identified whatever talk group or unit ID that the Marshall used.

So I am wondering if any locals still have any information on the Alta Marshall.

In this video you can hear the distinctive “chirp” of a trunked system when the Marshal talked on the radio, so I’m guessing they’re on UCA. I’d like to know their talkgroup too!

I believe they dispatch via UPD Wasatch since they work closely with them for canyon operations.
