2009 US-IALE Symposium
Snowbird, Utah | April 12-16, 2009
Lodging
The US-IALE conference will be housed primarily in the Cliff Lodge,
offering large rooms with stunning views of the surrounding canyon and
ski slopes. The lodge itself has three restaurants, two lounges, two
swimming pools, four hot tubs, and is the primary site of the meeting.
Room rates for the conference at Cliff Lodge are as follows:
| Option | Rate |
| Canyon and Mountain View Rooms (single and double occupancy) | $139.00 |
| Executive King Junior Suite | $169.00 |
Other Lodging Details:
Rates are subject to a $10.00 resort fee, per room, per night that includes high speed internet access in guest rooms and public areas, one complimentary tram ride ($12 value), in room coffee, valet and self parking, complimentary 800 number phone calls, and incoming and outgoing faxes. Rates are also subject to 11.6% state tax.
Deadline:
Reservations must be made before March 12 to guarantee the group rate. After this date the discounted group room rate will not be guaranteed.
Deposit and Cancellation Policy:
30 days prior to the conference attendees who have made reservations will be charged for their first night as a deposit. This deposit will be non-refundable should attendees need to cancel. This also applies to no-shows and early departures.
Reservations may be made by calling 1-800-453-3000 or by emailing lodging@snowbird.com. Individuals should identify themselves with the US-IALE group when making reservations. You should make your airport shuttle reservation when making your hotel reservation, as the hotel is coordinating airport shuttles, and they must be reserved in advance.
IMPORTANT: We strongly encourage all attendees to
stay in Snowbird. Simply put, there are no other lodging opportunities
within 30-50 km of Snowbird except those at the resort. Daily
commuting from the Salt Lake City area to Snowbird is discouraged
given the distance, the nature of the canyon road, and commuting
times, which can be as long as one hour. Weather can also be adverse
in April, making a daily commute hazardous.
Please contact us at
iale2009infor@cnr.usu.edu if you have specific
questions or concerns regarding lodging. We will work with everyone
to ensure lodging at the resort. Quite honestly, your enjoyment of
the conference will be jeopardized if you decide to try and commute
on a daily basis.
