Employment

“Alta Lodge is a great place to work. They actually care about their employees — increasingly rare in today’s world. If you are fortunate enough to work at the Lodge, you’ll live in Little Cottonwood Canyon, ski your brains out, fill your belly with good food, and work with a great group of people.” – Dr. Ken Libre, MD, Alta Medical Clinic
