Reviews

Ronald Cole

Best ski area regionally.. Great small-hill vibe and some of the most and best snow in the state. It has become too crowded on weekends in recent years with the local population boom. Week days are still very relaxed with very short lift lines. Bad office management experiences should not be confused with the fun of skiing at Lookout Pass. And vistors who complain about such safety measures as having to leash snowboards and Tele gear are free to ride elswhere and hopefully will.
