four inches fresh snow Greetings!
The snow is starting to fall and we are getting close to opening! We still need a bit more snow before we announce opening day, but we wanted to pass along some of the exciting changes we've made this year.
 
We've installed TWO new chairlifts, added 160 acres of brand new terrain and opened the first Burton Learn to Ride Center in Idaho.
 
You can keep tabs on our snow totals and our progress toward opening day by checking in on our snow report page.

If you're looking for a great holiday gift, you may want to check out our multi-day Select Cards. They're a great way to give the gift of snow!
Lakeview Lift & Lakeview Bowl
A fresh experience on the backside

The new Lakeview Lift opens up 160 acres of previously inaccessible terrain featuring countless pockets of powder, perfectly spaced glades, and four new groomed runs.

The terrain varies from rolling slopes to steep pitches, with spectacular views of the Payette Lakes unfolding as you float through the Best Snow in IdahoTM.


What's in a Name?
When it came time to name the new Lakeview chairlift and the runs in Lakeview Bowl, Brundage Mountain's owners allowed the local area's history and loyal visitors to provide their inspiration. Learn More...
Multi-day SELECT CARDS

If you like to spend a lot of time of the slopes but don't like digging too deep into your wallet, the Select Card is the way to go.

This multi-day product allows you to choose when you want to visit (no blackouts!). The more days you purchase, the more you'll save -- up to $45!

The Bear Chair
Keeping Families Together

It's what beginners and families have been wishing for without even knowing it.

We've said goodbye to the old platter tow and added The Bear Chair to create a whole new experience for those starting out on skis or snowboards. The Bear Chair will load right next to the base of the existing Centennial chairlift, and unload at the top of the knob where that platter tow used to end.

During the seven-minute lift ride, those on the Bear Chair will have a front row seat to the action in our new terrain park on Jammer.

If you did not get your pass in the mail, please stop by Guest Services next time you're on the mountain and we'd be happy to update your data and print your new pass.
