Snowcat Season Opens Early
Guided trips start this weekend
It's an early Christmas gift for backcountry enthusiasts! Brundage Mountain SnowCat Adventures is starting its season more than three weeks earlier than normal!
We still have space available for trips this weekend and over the holiday period. Normally, our snowcat season starts in mid-January, so this is an exciting opportunity to make some new holiday memories.
Call 208-634-4151 ext. 124 to book your seat. More details are available here.
We also have some new experiences on the horizon for even the most seasoned snowcat skier. Follow this link to learn about our new terrain on Six-Mile Ridge.

The Powder Predicament
 Brundage Mountain is a haven for powder lovers and with the new gear designed to make off-trail skiing easier than ever, we're seeing a growing number of people heading beyond our boundaries.
A trendy term has evolved for this kind of skiing, but no matter how close the 'sidecountry' is to a ski area, anything beyond the boundaries is 'backcountry'. This recent article highlights the so-called sidecountry myth.
If you're considering a trip beyond our boundaries, having the right training and equipment is essential.
The best way to prepare is to take a backcountry skills course or avalanche awareness class. The Payette Powder Guides offer several classes throughout the winter.
Here are 10 Questions you should ask yourself before you enter the backcountry, from our friends at Outside Magazine.
We invite you to refresh your beacon skills in our beacon park and review your avalanche awareness here.

Mark Your Calendars for a Spectacular Show...
Join us as we 'Light Up the Night' on Saturday, December 29th
Mark your calendars  and be sure to join us for our dazzling holiday party!
This year, our Light Up the Night celebration will feature a torchlight parade, slopeside fireworks show and 'pray for snow' bonfire in the parking lot!
This year's menu includes a pesto alfredo pasta with skewered sugar cane shrimp and a colorful array of vegetables, caeser salad and breadstick. The cost is $18 for adults and $14 for children 12 and under. This dinner has sold out the past two years, so it's a good idea to pre-purchase your tickets by e-mailing info@brundage.com or calling 208-634-4151 ext. 124 between 9 am and 5 pm. You do not need a dinner ticket to enjoy the outdoor spectacle, but you do need a dinner ticket to get a seat on the third floor. |
