The mighty Ullr and the rest of the snow Gods have treated much of North American with ample pow this season, with California and Utah seeing staggering levels of snow. This being the case, a handful of resorts have pushed back their closing dates. From Killington to Snowbird, Mammoth to Beartooth Basin, there will be lift accessed turns to be had for months to come. It’s time to grab a Hawaiian shirt (or acceptable alternative) and some Pit Vipers, assemble your crew and get ready for some slushy corn snow action. Spring skiing is officially extended!
There’s still a few months of ski season left if you know where to look, and we can help you with finding the late season goodness. Below you’ll find our comprehensive FREESKIER approved list of many North American destination spinning lifts well into the spring. Happy turns!
