Snow falls beside a building marked with a large number “4” at Mission Ridge, with Chair 4 and snow-covered trees visible in the background during active winter conditions.

Chair 4 Opening 1/7/26

We’re excited to share that Chair 4 is scheduled to open for the first time this season tomorrow, Wednesday, January 7, with limited early-season terrain.

Our Mountain Operations teams have been working steadily to bring Chair 4 terrain online, with several productive snowmaking windows over the past week helping move us closer to this milestone. While rain overnight on January 2 and into the morning of January 3 slowed progress slightly, recent cold temperatures and our teams strong efforts have allowed us to open a portion of Chair 4 terrain and continue expanding our footprint on the mountain.

Chair 4 will be scheduled for operation from 9am to 9pm with night skiing kicking back off tomorrow night.

Anticipated Open Terrain – Chair 4

  • Sitkum (groomed)
  • Castle (ungroomed)
  • Lomax (ungroomed)

*Run availability and grooming status subject to change.

Terrain Notes & Expectations

Terrain accessed from Chair 4 remains early-season and variable. Coverage is still developing, and thin cover, variable snow conditions, and unmarked obstacles exist. Chair 4 terrain is best suited for intermediate and advanced skiers and riders who are comfortable with variable snow conditions, low coverage, and challenging early-season terrain. There is no easy way down from Chair 4. 

Looking ahead, the forecast for the remainder of the weekend and into early next week includes promising chances for new snowfall, which should continue to improve coverage and conditions across the mountain.
