GMD is a skiers lodge, at the base of the hill. Ski in and ski out. Rooms are rustic. Building needs upgrading. Room rate includes a full, amazing breakfast. Dinners are excellent.

We stay at Goldminers whenever we go to Alta which is almost every year. Rooms are so-so but the staff, restaruant and location more than make up for those shortcomings.
