MT. ASHLAND SKI AREA

From atop the Siskiyou Crest, Mt. Ashland provides terrain for skiers and riders of every ability. Founded in 1964 and operated by a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization, Mt. Ashland is Southern Oregon’s hub for outdoor recreation. With a peak elevation of 7,533′ and over 200 acres of skiable terrain, find your happy place amongst our steeper terrain in The Bowl, one of dozens of groomed runs, in one of our tree glades or at the Learning Center.

Located just eight miles from I-5 near the Oregon-California border, Mt. Ashland features a full rental shop (with ski and snowboard rentals and tuning), several dining options, the T-Bar Lounge, a retail shop, and ski school.

This winter, come see for yourself why Mt. Ashland is your local mountain playground!

It’s another groomer day on Mt. Ashland! 🏔️
With temperatures rising up to 40 degrees this afternoon, the sun may soften the snow in certain areas.

We have a packed events line up for this coming week! On Friday, we have our Space Monkey Slopestyle from 5:30 - 8:00pm, on Saturday we have our Annual Skimo Summit and on both Saturday and Sunday MARA has their Shakespeare cup with both Giant Slalom and Slalom Races!

❄️ Andrew in the Alpine with a chilly update on our Space Monkey Slopestyle and more!

It’s going to be cooler temperatures on the mountain today! Andrew in the Alpine recommends breaking out the carving skis and snowboards for the groomers as anything off-piste will be very firm. As a reminder, there is no Easy terrain off of Ariel and Windsor Chairlifts, only More Difficult and Most Difficult. 🏔️

The registration is live for our Space Monkey Slopestyle on January 31st, so make sure to check the events page linked in our bio for more information!

Lastly, the weather is projecting high winds today, but so far it’s been fairly calm (knock on wood!). In the event it picks up, please keep an eye on the mountain report for any updates on wind holds.

We’ll see you on the mountain!🏔️
