The ski area will be CLOSED Monday April 14th to Thursday April 17th! Our final weekend of winter operation begins with a bang on Friday April 18th and goes on through Sunday April 20th.
The extended forecast for closing weekend is showing sunny spring skiing with temps in the 50s. It will be an absolutely beautiful few days to close out the 2024-25 Mt. Baker shred season. Pack up the jorts and glitter, and come on up to cement in your goggle tan while there’s still time! We will have bands out on the White Salmon beach each day, good eats, and ice cold brews flowing to set the vibes just right!
Don’t forget about the Last Stand Rail Jam on April 19th, where the phenomenal freeride feature zone crew will have a brand new, exclusive, contestant only rail line set up! There still time to sign up online.
We can’t wait to celebrate closing weekend with you all. See you on the mountain!
Thanks to everyone who came to the Easter Egg Hunt!
