Go back in time to the early days of skiing at Cedar Pass Snow Park. This small, community-run ski area in the Warner Mountains is a labor of love, entirely staffed by volunteers. With a total of six runs, the lower half of the mountain is serviced by a rope tow, perfect for beginners and for the more advanced, the T-Bar takes skiers to higher elevations. Though small, the lodge is cozy and warm and has all the usual amenities plus a public barbecue grill. Downhill skiers of all ages and abilities are welcome, and if it’s your first time on the slopes, Cedar Ski Pass will welcome you with a free lesson and equipment rental! You won’t find a better ski deal than that! Cross-country skiers and snowshoers can warm themselves at the lodge on the way to or from the surrounding backcountry terrain. Open weekends and holidays during the winter months.
WHERE: From the Junction of Hwy 395 and Hwy 299 in Alturas, go north on Hwy 299 towards Cedarville approximately 17 miles. (google map)
