Things To Do

Ski, ride, tube, eat and stay in winter. Ride, zip, hike and dine all summer. A whole mountain, an hour from the city.

Ski & Ride

Natural terrain, four chairs and views over the clouds. Baldy is SoCal's real mountain, and this is its 75th winter.

Snow Tubing & Snow Play

No skis, no lessons, no problem. Ride the chair up and spend the day sliding, building and throwing snow at 7,800 feet.

Dress warm and bring dry layers for the ride home.

Scenic Chairlift

Ride the Sugar Pine chair to Top of the Notch at 7,800 feet. On clear days the view stretches from the Inland Empire to the Pacific.

Grab a hot meal or a cold beer at the Notch, wander the trails and ride back down whenever you're ready.

Zip Line

Ready to fly? Our zip line runs high above the Notch and is built to deliver real g-forces.

Because of that, there are age and medical restrictions, and we may refuse service if we're concerned for your safety.

  • Dogs are welcome on the trails on a leash, but not on the chairlift

Ski, Ride & Snow Play

When the snow comes, Baldy is SoCal's real mountain: natural terrain, four chairs and views over the clouds. Snow tubing and snow play keep the kids busy.
