Information
Broken River is OPEN today! It is going to be a mild day with clouds and some wind. Snow conditions should be soft all around the mountain. Come on up for a fun Saturday, we're not sure how many more we have left. The Access Tow is very thin, with bare patches, and is only suitable for experienced tow riders. Others, please walk to Palmer Lodge to start your day. Also today is BR Freeride Competition! This low-key, social competition is open to everyone - ski and snowboard, and adult & junior categories. We've got some cool prizes and there'll be a BBQ to finish. $20 registration.
