Mountain Report

Summer Operations

Saturdays and Sundays 9am to 4pm

Mountain temperatures are sitting in the 60s this Labor Day weekend, which makes for perfect trail conditions and comfortable afternoons outside. Kick things off Thursday, September 3, at HydroJug at Sunset Social. HydroJug is releasing their fall collection at 8,700 feet and giving away 300 jugs, so plan to get up early. From there, settle in for live music from Changing Lanes, cocktails from Ogden's Own Distillery, and golden hour over the valley. Doors are open 5pm to 9pm at Needles Lodge, with the final Thursday night for our Bike Park powered by SCOTT running late from 4pm to 8pm.

Then bring your best friend up for Dogtoberfest, running all three days from Saturday, September 5 through Monday, September 7. SnowWiesn Oktoberfest is open 12pm to 6pm each day with Bavarian games, local craft beer, and live music that builds to a 4pm headliner. The first 50 dogs each day take home a branded bandana and pins. Trails are open 9am to 4pm for hiking and biking.

Cap the weekend on Sunday, September 6 with our Mountain-Top Brunch, a grand buffet at 8,700 feet with 360-degree views and a gondola ride included. Seating runs 10am to 2:30pm and reservations are required.

All guests must use access gates regardless of website status. Website information is intended to inform the guest of terrain status, but it is the guest’s responsibility to confirm the area is open by entering through an access gate.  Signage on the mountain supersedes website information. Failure to use access gates may result in loss of pass privileges.
