Thank you to everyone for a great season. Now that winter operations have concluded, we will not enforce our uphill travel policy. If you plan to hike for turns, please be aware:

  • There is no patrol or other assistance available
  • There are no hazard markings
  • We are actively working on maintenance projects throughout the permit area. Please stay clear of all work being done on the hill
  • Visitors are on their own and we strongly encourage you to go elsewhere
  • As always, sledding is not allowed

We appreciate you making the most of this low-snow year. One last time, let's all acknowledge the heroics of our grooming staff and other folks who pulled out all the stops to keep as much terrain open as possible. It's definitely a year for the record books, and not in our preferred way! Even so, there were some great pow days, amazing stretches of perfect groom for both alpine and Nordic, and creative work done by park crew. We'll do it again next year, hopefully with lots more snow! If you're already ready for next season... pick up your 2026-2027 season pass now to get the lowest price possible. Thanks for riding Meadows, everyone. Have a wonderful spring and summer, and we'll see you when the snowflakes fly again!

We have a limited number of overnight RV parking spots in the Sunrise lot. They're on a first-come, first-served basis. RV parking is available Wednesday through Tuesday afternoon at 4 PM and closed on Tueday nights - this is for snow removal and will help create space for your RVs. RV parking will be available after 6 AM on Wednesday mornings. Please stay away from all equipment in the area.
