We are excited to announce that the opening day of the 2023/24 season will be Saturday, November 25th!
The Thanksgiving weekend opening will mark the 11th time in 12 years that the resort has been able to open by this target. Mission Ridge is likely to be the first ski area open in Washington and Oregon this season, an accomplishment made possible by the resort’s top-to-bottom snowmaking system and world-class snowmaking crew. We will kick off the season with a limited opening on Chair 1 and The Wenatchee Express (Chair 2), scheduled for operation from 9 am to 4 pm on the 25th and 26th. Open runs will be Sunspot and Tumwater, accessed via the Wenatchee Express chair, and Mimi, accessed off of Chair 1.
Early season conditions will exist. Please stay on open runs and respect all rope lines/trail closures as they are there for your safety.
