Mt. Rose Ski Tahoe Continues to Invest in the Resort Experience Ahead of 60th Seaso

The team at Mt. Rose Ski Tahoe has never been shy about making significant off-season investments that enhance the guest experience, and this year is no exception. As the resort prepares for its upcoming 60th anniversary season, $2.2 million in major capital improvements include a complete dining area renovation featuring a new Taco Bar, snowmaking system enhancements, trail improvements, and a new snowcat to support the resort’s ability to offer a high-quality snow surface. Mt. Rose’s popular ‘Open Late’ schedule will also be extended to include both Fridays and Saturdays starting in February 2025.

“This season will mark two milestone anniversaries at Mt. Rose – the resort’s 60th, and the 20th anniversary of The Chutes,” said Mike Pierce, Mt. Rose Ski Tahoe marketing and sales director. “We’ll not only celebrate these events all season long with our guests, but are upgrading our facilities and equipment so that we can continue to offer an exceptional experience and high level of service.”

The Mountain View dining area located on the upper level of the resort’s Main Lodge has undergone a full refresh over the summer, including new furniture and an improved guest experience and traffic flow. Mt. Rose’s popular Timbers Taco stand will also have a new permanent home in the Mountain View dining area. The new Timbers Taco Bar will offer street tacos, nachos, and other traditional Mexican food favorites. Other Lodge improvements include further touches to the revamped Lodgepole Cafe and improved flooring in the servery.

On the mountain, the Around the World trail, popular with advanced beginner and low intermediate skiers and riders, will benefit from trail improvements. To enhance the experience and offer resort guests more room to spread out, the trail was widened in the zone approaching the Lariat Junction.

The resort also continues to invest in snowmaking system upgrades that will allow for increased production when temperatures begin to drop in October, including the ability to produce maximum output whenever weather and conditions allow. Resort guests will enjoy high-quality snow conditions and increased coverage in the early season.

The resort’s snow surface will also benefit from the newest snowcat joining the Mt. Rose fleet to maintain the trails with precision grooming all season long.

Beginning in late February 2025, Mt. Rose’s popular “Open Late” schedule will be expanded to two days per week to include both Friday and Saturday. Select lifts will remain open until 6 p.m. both days for those who want to extend their day and make the most of longer days in the sun. Friday Night Gates will also return with more teams to be added to the field, and “Bonus Mondays” will return to the infamous Daily Special Options with heavily discounted Monday lifts tickets for anyone who skis at Rose the previous Saturday or Sunday (void holidays).
