Mt. Ashland Ski Area announced it will open for the 2025-26 winter season today, with limited terrain available.

Guests will notice several exciting upgrades this season, including additional LED night lighting on the Lithia Chairlift and the expansion of Twilight Skiing terrain to include Lupine and Poma in preparation for Twilight Skiing beginning January 8, as well as the newly paved Karen & Sid DeBoer Lodge guest plaza and new directional signage inside The Lodge.

The Sonnet Chairlift, Lithia Chairlift, and the First Act Learning Carpet will operate from 9:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. A limited-time $18 Sonnet single-day lift ticket, which includes access to Sonnet Chairlift, Lithia Chairlift and First Act, is available.

Open terrain will include Sonnet for beginner and intermediate skiers and snowboarders. Poma and Lupine will be open for expert riders only, as snow coverage is thin and limited. All core services will be available in varying capacities.

While the season’s snowfall to date is approximately 70% below average, the Mt. Ashland team is working to open terrain and get skiers and snowboarders back on the slopes as soon as possible.
