Questions? Email info@bogusbasin.org Pricing Bogus Basin management may adjust pricing and product offerings at any time. Hours of Operation Bogus Basin management may adjust hours & days of operation, lift openings, terrain access, and activity offering at any time based upon snow conditions, weather conditions, trail conditions, and/or skier visits at any time. Uphill Traffic Policy Uphill skin track is open, please read the following: Safety Considerations: Bogus Basin has the authority to manage, and restrict uphill traffic to the public within the boundary of our operational area as authorized through our permit with the U.S. Forest Service. Reasons for closures may include the area maintenance and other operational activities such as grooming, snow making, construction, avalanche mitigation, and special events to name a few. Rules of the Up: Bogus Basin Recreation Area generally allows uphill traffic in areas and times where a lift is not currently operating. However, Mountain Staff and Ski Patrol always have the right to ask you to turn around or leave the area. For the safety of everyone at Bogus Basin, anyone participating in these activities must adhere to the following guidelines and accept the risks associated with uphill travel. No uphill traffic on open runs. This includes ALL in bounds lift accessible terrain and cat tracks, (including tree runs and “off trail”) with the exception of the Uphill Track (see below) If the lifts are turning and people are skiing down in your vicinity, you need to be heading downhill as well. Know and follow ‘Your Responsibility Code’ at all times. Before and after daylight hours, a headlamp or flashlight is required and reflective clothing is advised at all hours. No dogs are allowed on the mountain. Overnight stays on the mountain are Not Permitted! Bogus Basin reserves the right to close uphill traffic at any time. NO SLEDDING IS ALLOWED ON ANY PART OF BOGUS BASIN RECREATION AREA AT ANY TIME. The mountain is closed and swept clear of all guests and staff at the end of each operating day and during emergencies. Do not expect Ski Patrol rescue response after an area is swept clear, or before opening. If your presence on-mountain property presents a hazard or the mountain staff feels that you are impeding the operations of the mountain, you may be directed to utilize a different location. You must follow such direction or you will be asked to leave the premises It is your responsibility to avoid all grooming operations, snowmobiles, and snowmaking equipment and especially the winch groomers and their cables. The cable between the anchor and the groomer can be difficult to see and maybe under the snow or crossing over runs. These cables are deceptively thin and can stretch for a thousand feet and can move very quickly across runs with the groomer out of sight below. Collisions with these cables will cause severe injury or death. -Possible winched runs include but are not limited to Cabin Traverse, Wildcat, Upper Paradise, Lower Nugget, Second Chance, Night Hawk, Triumph, War Eagle, Lando’s Mojo, and Widowmaker. STAY OFF OF TRAILS WHEN SNOWMAKING IS IN PROGRESS. These trails will have 480-volt electrical cords and high-pressure water hoses, and at times they may be just beneath the surface of the snow. They may also have very icy conditions, particularly near the snow guns. Seek an alternate route if you see any indication of snow machines, electrical cords, or hoses. – Do not enter areas where machinery is in use – The majority of machinery operates after hours, pay close attention at all times. Recommended Uphill In-Bound Travel Routes: A) Up-Hill-Skin-Track: The up-hill route is being worked on and will be ready soon! This route is labeled on the ski area map and is generally open at all times. The track departs from between the base of coach run and the road, at the signed Uphill route kiosk and travels through the trees away from the ski runs and is flagged with markers. While it is inside the edge the of the southern ski area boundary it offers a relatively secluded and quiet route up. This is the recommended route when uphill traffic is restricted on the rest of the mountain. The uphill track is for uphill use only, and may be utilized by skiers or split boarders with skins. Snow shoes are allowed for going up, but skis or a snowboard must be used for coming down. Absolutely NO boot packing! B) Shafer Butte Route: This route departs from the Pioneer Lodge up Lodge Cat track to hiker’s left of Triumph and then on up the cat track to Shafer Butte. This route is closed due to operations and winch grooming until about 2:00 am. In the mornings please be transitioning into downhill mode fifteen minutes before opening, 8:45 am on weekends and holidays and 9:45 am Monday through Friday. Note that we strive to open the lifts early for guests, and if we do, you will be required to turn around and head downhill. *THESE ARE SUGGESTED ROUTES WHEN USING OTHER ROUTES PLEASE BE CONSCIENTIOUS OF SNOW GROOMERS AND KEEP TO ONE SIDE OF THE TRAIL WHEN SKIING DOWN GIVE THEM A WIDE BERTH AS THEY DO NOT EXPECT YOU TO BE THERE. THE SAME RULES APPLY AS ABOVE TO TRANSITION TIMES, 8:45 AM ON WEEKENDS AND HOLIDAYS AND 9:45 AM MONDAY THROUGH FRIDAY. Rescue Response: There are no Ski Patrol or ski area services outside of the mountain’s normal operating hours. If accessing the mountain prior to operating hours, you do so at your own risk. In case of emergency, outside of operating hours, call 911 and know that response times could be extended. Additionally while utilizing areas that are closed for lift access, such as Pine Creek or Bitterroot during night ski ops, Ski Patrol may not have resources to attend to emergencies outside of operational areas. Also be aware that mobile phone service can be unreliable on the mountain, especially on the Pine Creek side and Superior sides of the mountain. In summary if you are utilizing the area for uphill travel, treat it like the back country and be prepared to self-rescue or be equipped to survive a long wait time for outside help. Required Pass and Release of Liability: We have decided to waive the pass and liability waiver for this season. Back Country Gates: These gates are maintained to provide access to the back country terrain surrounding Bogus Basin. Once you go through one of these gates, you have left Bogus Basin. Ski Patrol does not operate outside of the area boundaries, and will not be responsible for rescues. Please only utilize these gates if you are equipped, at a minimum, with a beacon, shovel, probe, and the skills and knowledge to assess and travel in avalanche terrain and perform a partner rescue. Bogus Basin may at times close these gates due to avalanche or other hazards, however an open gate does not in any way signify or guarantee slope stability or safety. When gates are closed you are free to access that terrain another way if you are so determined, as it is public land, you just can’t do it from our operating area. If you need assistance outside one of the gates, call 911 as you would in any other emergency outside of Bogus Basin and be equipped to wait an extended time for rescue. *THIS POLICY AND UP-HILL-SKIN-TRACK IS MAINTAINED AND ENFORCED BY THE BOGUS BASIN SKI PATROL, ANY QUESTIONS, COMMENTS OR SUGGESTIONS CAN BE SENT TO SPATROL@BOGUSBASIN.ORG.
