Bogus Basin, the popular non-profit located 16 miles from downtown Boise, is excited to announce the launch of its 80th Anniversary summer season. Beginning June 23rd, visitors to the area can enjoy a full range of outdoor family-friendly summer activities seven days a week.

The Deer Point Express Chairlift will operate on weekends only. The area will also open a new aerial adventure course on July 1st.

“We are excited to announce the opening of Bogus Basin’s 2023 summer season and continued celebration of 80 years in the community. This summer, there will be no shortage of opportunities for guests to connect with nature, create lasting memories, and enjoy all that the area has to offer.” Jamie Zolber – Director, Skier Services

The 20-plus mile trail network at The Basin Gravity Park and Bogus Basin have earned the non-profit a reputation as a regionally renowned mountain bike destination, and early-season trail conditions at The Basin Gravity Park, the area’s downhill biking park, are expected to be exceptional. Several miles of new trails will be unveiled this summer, including “Around the Mountain Extension,” a fun and flowy two-mile addition to one of Idaho’s top-ranked cross-country trails. Summer season passes, providing unlimited access to The Basin Gravity Park, are now available for purchase.

Just 16 miles from Boise, Bogus Basin is the ultimate local summer destination for Treasure Valley residents, providing something for everyone. Full summer operations will continue through Sunday, Aug. 20th. The area will remain open Fridays-Sundays Aug. 25th-Sept. 4th, then Saturdays-Sundays only Sept. 9th-Oct. 1st.
