Brundage Mountain to close at end of day Tuesday

“It is with a heavy heart that we announce that Brundage Mountain will be closed until further notice starting at the end of business today 3-17-2020.

Suspending our operations is a necessary step in support of our national and community efforts to limit the spread and reduce the risks associated with COVID-19. This is an unprecedented situation. At our core, the Brundage Mountain family is devoted to providing a healthy outdoor experience for our skiing and riding community.

However, with recent developments and school and other closures in our area, we must acknowledge that keeping Brundage Mountain open at this time would undoubtedly result in an influx of travelers to our community. Brundage is locally owned and operated, and the safety and long-term wellbeing of our staff and of the surrounding communities is of utmost importance to us.

We continue to believe outdoor recreation provides a meaningful escape to nature, which made this a difficult decision. At this critical time, we feel this is the right decision to help flatten the curve in support of our local healthcare system.

We apologize for the inconvenience the short notice will cause some of our guests. These are unprecedented times changing not by the day but by the hour. We make the best decisions based on the information available at the time. Given the new developments and information available on the virus and the crucial nature of social distancing, we felt we could not delay taking this important step."
