For more than 40 years, Southern Oregonians have been saying “If you can ski Mt. Ashland, you can ski anywhere.” Now it’s time to take them up on their challenge and get to Mt. Ashland Ski Area. With 23 runs on Siskiyou Mountain Range’s highest peak, the only thing you have to lose is your pride.
On the north-facing slopes of the 7,500-foot Mt. Ashland, the view is amazing. You’ll be happy that you decided to grab your skis and ride the four ski lifts to the top. Until you reach the Black Diamond Upper Balcony run along the rim of peaks. It will literally take your breath away. However, once you’ve convinced yourself that it was just the high altitude that made you momentarily dizzy, you can make your way down the mountain along various beginner- to advanced-rated runs.
Haven’t been on the slopes for a while? Attend one of the Mt. Ashland Ski School lessons for children and adults before attempting the challenging Upper Tempest. Or try chute skiing. Boarders will love Mt. Ashland’s famous bowl. With 300 inches of snowfall annually, you can be sure that Mt. Ashland will be sufficiently powdered when you get there.
