Silver Lake, at the mid-mountain base, is the largest of the three cafeterias. The serving line is at the left side of the building, looking at it from the slopes in front, behind the main dining room. Ski directly there via Ontario-Homeward Bound from Flagstaff Mountain and Empire Canyon, or take either of the two lifts running in the opposite direction as Quincy from the Quincy base area. Get there via Birdseye from Bald Mountain. From the lower mountain or Deer Crest, eat at Snow Park and avoid some crowds. Check your skis (free) at the open door of the small building to the left of the lodge, looking at the front of the building.

Deer Valley limits lift ticket sales so that everyone can get a seat for lunch between 11am and 2pm.
