Thanks to strong early-season snowfall, Ski Apache will open for the 2023–24 winter season on Saturday, Nov. 25. Opening day will coincide with the resort’s annual Party on the Mountain. Please note that the opening date is weather-dependent, and any updates will be communicated accordingly. The resort will tentatively open with lower chairs three and five with additional lifts coming online as conditions allow. Skiers and snowboarders on the slopes Nov. 25 will get to enjoy Party on the Mountain, a free family event featuring food, fun and live entertainment from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Those in search of relaxation can unwind with live music from a local DJ from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. and enjoy scenic gondola rides for only $25. Party on the Mountain is also the last opportunity to purchase winter season passes at a discounted rate.
