Cat Skiing
Enjoy the thrill of backcountry skiing 10,000-12,000 vertical feet in one day without the effort of climbing. After only a 15-minute shuttle to the Lodge and set-up, you’ll ride in a snowcat to the ski lodge for about 45 minutes. Return time is between 4:00-4:30 p.m.
Cat-skiing/boarding terrain is predominantly gladed tree skiing and occasional tree bands leading into open chutes. Available terrain is dependent on current weather and safety conditions and group ability.
