Mt. Ashland Ski Area

Oregon’s only 501(c)(3) Nonprofit ski area, Mt. Ashland, is the highest mountain in Southern Oregon’s Siskiyou range, and one of the only slopes in the nation where skiers can carve graceful turns during the day and enjoy clever turns of phrase at night. It’s located just 30 minutes from Ashland, where après- ski options include a vibrant arts community, superb restaurants, quaint bed and breakfasts, and a world-famous Shakespeare Festival.

From Mt. Ashland’s 7,533-foot summit, skiers and snowboarders ride a drop of 1,150 vertical feet. There is a remarkable terrain park, and the five chairlifts provide access to 44 trails as well as to open bowl skiing. The mountain’s 240 acres of skiing offer a number of challenging runs, including Ado and Balcony, leading locals to brag: If you can ski Ashland, you can ski anywhere.
