"Bonus Weekends" Added April 17 & 18 and April 24 & 25
BRUNDAGE MOUNTAIN EXTENDS SEASON THROUGH END OF APRIL, POSSIBLY BEYOND
‘Bonus Weekends’ Added April 17 & 18, April 24 & 25
A huge blast of fresh powder has blessed Brundage Mountain with some of the best snow conditions of the entire season, and the McCall, Idaho ski area now plans to stay open on weekends AT LEAST through the end of April.
Brundage Mountain plans to be open seven days a week through April 11, and has now added two “Bonus Weekends” to the season, Saturday, April 17th and Sunday, April 18th as well as Saturday, April 24th and Sunday, April 25th.
Snow conditions and snow depths at Brundage Mountain are the best they’ve been all season. The resort has had 40” inches of fresh snow since March 21st, more snow than it got for the entire month of February! The base now measures 58-84 inches, and mid-winter snow conditions exist both on the groomed runs and off trail in the powder.
“Apparently, Winter decided to show up late this year,” said resort spokesperson, April Russell. “So we’ve decided to stay open late so our visitors don’t miss out on the excellent skiing and riding this spring.”
Four chairlifts will operate during the Bonus Weekends, and all essential mountain services will be available. Children 11 & under are invited to ski for free for the first two Bonus Weekends, and all other age groups will enjoy a $10 discount off the regular full-day lift ticket prices.
Prices are as follows for April 17-18, April 24-25:
Kids 11 & Under – FREE
Juniors (12-17) and Seniors (70+) – $27
Adults (18 – 69) – $44
With the new snowfall and recent low temperatures, resort operators are confident that slope conditions will remain favorable into late April, and possibly into May.
Brundage Mountain will be assessing snow conditions and visitor interest in the coming weeks in hopes of adding even more bonus weekends.
Exciting events and savings planned for April 10 & 11
Whether you’re into old-school racing or new-school tricks, there’s something for you next weekend at Brundage.
The MSRT Marathon is a 2+ mile race down Brundage Mountain’s longest green run. The challenge is to keep up your speed on the flats and make it to the bottom! Proceeds from this event benefit the McCall Ski Racing Team.
The Brundage Cup Freestyle Jam Final will also be held on Saturday, April 11 and is the culmination of a season-long series in the re-vamped Brundage Mountain Terrain Park.
Sunday, April 11th, Brundage introduces a brand new event, the “Snow Battle”. It’s like a paint-ball war but with snowballs flying instead of paint!
Sunday, April 11th is also a Second Sunday Pass Holder Bonus Day. That means Brundage Mountain Season Pass Holders can bring a friend for free, and Bogus Basin Pass Holders will enjoy half-priced lift tickets.
