Alta Lodge

Alta Lodge -  sign

Alta doesn't have a big ski village with flash resorts: rather, a handful of lodges and condos are scattered at the base of the ski area.

Alta Lodge is a "lodge" in the old-fashioned sense: no tv's; big fireplace; get to know other guests over dinner.

(Note the bus sign, above: public buses run from the airport to the Alta ski slopes.)
