Hot on the heels of Mt. Hood Meadows announcing its earliest opening day in 15 years, another Oregon ski resort has jumped the gun on their scheduled kickoff for the 2024/2025 ski season.

Mt. Bachelor will be opening to passholders this Friday November 15th, marking their earliest opening day in 26 years! Bachelor had originally planned to open November 29th but early season snow and a monumental effort by their team on the ground has allowed them to open up a full two weeks early. They will be spinning Skyliner and Little Pine through Sunday and reopen the following weekend to general public. Daily operations will begin November 29th.

“Big news! We’re kicking off the season 2 weeks early, this Friday, November 15, to Passholders only. Recent snow coupled with a monumental effort from our teams sets us up for our earliest opening in 26 years. Skyliner and Little Pine are expected to spin from 9:00 a.m. – 4:00 p.m. Friday, November 15 through Sunday, November 17.

Outplay 365, Full, Midweek, 4-Day, and Ikon Passholders are all invited to join this weekend’s fun. The Nordic Center will also be open with access to Nordic Passholders only. We will reopen to the public next weekend, November 22-24, with daily operations starting on November 29.”
