⚠️Off Season Uphill Travel⚠️
For those looking to earn their turns this off season, please check the Uphill Travel Policy daily for access availability. It is our goal to begin spring projects while allowing uphill travelers. Help us keep everyone safe by sticking to designated areas and being aware that machinery and equipment will be operating on the mountain. There are no emergency services available in the off season, so please call 911 in the event of an emergency.

Please take a moment to read through our uphill policies and rules page before heading out. Happy skinning!

Valley County Grooming update:
We will be grooming Warren Wagon Road to Burgdorf Junction this Friday night. There should be some good conditions for riding and sliding through the weekend but watch out for buried treasure! This will be our last night of grooming for the season. Let's all hope for more snow next winter!

UPDATE ON SPRING SARGENTS ACCESS AND PARKING: Due to Brundage resort development construction picking back up for the spring, the parking and access for Sargents backcountry skiing will be changing. The signed cat road that is part of the uphill route and connects Lower Rodeo to Goose Lake Rd. will be plowed and heavy machinery will be used in that area. Instead of parking in the Brundage parking lot and using the normal uphill route, skiers accessing Sargents can drive up Goose Lake Rd. past the entrance for the Northwoods real estate development to the end of the plowed road, turn, and park on the west side of the road. Make sure to avoid blocking the road, leave space for snowmobile trailers to park/turn around, and do not block the Northwoods driveway. Good news: this will cut down the approach to Sargents…and there’s snow in the forecast for next week! The second picture shows a waypoint for the approximate location of parking on Goose Lake Rd.
