Good to Know
Ski trail passes are required even outside staffed hours, and skiers must carry proof of purchase. Snowshoe access uses a separate vehicle fee. Confirm current rates and opening dates with the city. Rental-center hours are more limited than trail access, with staffing normally on winter Fridays and weekends, conditions permitting. Yurt rental requires a reservation and does not include trail passes. Use East Fork Mink Creek Road, not the recreation office address.
