Snow Play & Tubing

Ride the chair to 7,800 feet for tubing, sledding and a real snow day. We bring the tubes and sleds.

Snow Play opens when there's enough snow. Check the Mountain Report for today's status before you book.

Your Snow Play ticket includes a 20-minute scenic ride up the Sugar Pine chairlift, your Snow Play session at the top and the ride back down.

  • Tubing: multiple lanes for sliding, with a stop at the bottom
  • Climbing: King of the Hill, but with snow
  • Sledding: made for the little ones, and great for family photos
  • We provide the tubes and sleds. No personal sleds or tubes
