Mt Bachelor Resort

Mt Bachelor Resort boasts 7 Express Quad chair lifts, 3 triples, 71 runs, 3,683 acres of lift access, and 3,365 vertical feet of pristine powder skiing, all just minutes away from the thriving city of Bend, Oregon.

Mount Bachelor Resort opened its doors to skiers for the first time in November 1958 under the name "Bachelor Butte," offering a modest clubhouse, a rope tow, and a small Poma lift. Many things have changed since then.
