We wouldn’t be here without all of you coming up to ski and ride at Monarch.  Thanks for a great season!

Come and get it while you can!  We still have great coverage and plenty of lifts spinning for the weekend.  Enjoy these final days and ski you soon!

While the USFS continues their review process, we continue to prepare and plan.  The Ski Patrol team has been working tirelessly the last few weeks using GPS to flag the proposed trails in No Name Basin.  If/when we obtain final approval from the USFS, the units have been marked for the USFS timber crew to put the timber sale together…
