Mt. Ashland Ski Area Oregon
Plenty of Snow
The Mt. Ashland
ski area is nestled at 7,500 feet in the magnificent Siskiyou
Mountain range of southern Oregon.
The facility operates
daily from Thanksgiving to the beginning of April. Mother nature is
generous here, giving an average snow depth of 110 inches.
While there is plenty of snow for powder hounds on alpine
skis or snowboards, the unique climate offers plenty of sunny days
all winter long.
The ski area encompasses 23 trails in
addition to chute skiing in a glacial cirque, called the Bowl. All
trails are easily accessible by four chairlifts.
A gentle
just-for-beginner section, complete with its own triple chairlift,
is located close to the lodge where family and friends can watch and
offer encouragement.
Miles of cross-country skiing are
available on the southside of Mt. Ashland.
Mt. Ashland also
offers night skiing on Thursdays, Fridays, Saturdays and holidays,
with three chairlifts serving 10 lit runs.
The Ski School
staff will help you discover the fun of skiing from beginner to
expert, child through senior.
If you don't own equipment,
there is a full-service rental shop, featuring a state of the art
ski rental system. Certified technicians will match skier and
equipment or can swiftly put your skis back in top form.
The
SkiLoft retail shop offers alpine and snowboard accessories to
complete your outfit for a fashionable look.
You can still
your hunger with a delicious meal at our cafeteria or celebrate your
skiing accomplishment in the bar.
The leading lodging
facilities in Ashland have joined the ski area by offering ski and
lodging packages for any pocketbook. Register at participating
motels and bed and breakfasts for your overnight stay, and pickup
your discounted lift ticket for the day.
Mt. Ashland is a
community-owned ski area and is located just 30 minutes from the
city of Ashland.
