Information
OPENING FOR THE 2025 SEASON SOON! The northwest winds from the storm last weekend (13 July) filled in the upper basin nicely! There is good coverage from the ridge to about 1600 meters. Unfortunately there still isn't consistent snow coverage to Palmer Lodge. This means we won't be able to open this coming weekend (19 July). One more storm and we will be ready to go! We'll keep you updated when we see some snow coming our way.
