Did someone say BLIZZARD?

Unfortunately, not our favorite pal, Blizzard T. Husky – the cold & dangerous kind!

So, in the interest of safety for our racers, guests, and staff, Mont Ripley has made the proactive decision to close on Monday, December 29th, due to the predicted blizzard conditions.

We will reopen at 9 am on Tuesday, December 30th as scheduled. We appreciate your understanding and look forward to welcoming everyone back once conditions improve.

It’s almost time for Prime Season Hours to begin. Grab your gear and head to Mont Ripley after break!
