Ski & Ride Baldy
Natural terrain, four chairs and the 75th winter on SoCal's real mountain.
Four chairs
Chair status is posted every morning on the Mountain Report.
Sugar Pine
The gateway to everything. Runs from the base area to Top of the Notch, rentals and the restaurant.
Chair 2
Beginner terrain, and your access to Chair 3.
Thunder Mountain
Upper mountain terrain on the front side.
Chair 4
The far side. Sun-exposed, so it opens on deep snow years. Pray for snow.
Book your rental ahead
Our rental inventory is small and usually sells out. The only way to lock in a rental is to buy a Lift Ticket + Rental online before you come up.
