Alta Ski Resort Utah - Wildcat Base

Alta - ski shop

Just below Alta Lodge, you'll find a ski shop, lift tickets, and the casual Goldminer's Daughter lodge and restaurant. A large parking area is nearby.

At the left side of the photo above is a "transfer tow", to take skiers to the Albion Base, which has ski school, day care, Children's Ski Adventure Center, rentals, restaurant, etc.

At the right is a little tow to bring you up the short slope to the Alta Lodge: a welcome boost at the end of a long day.
