Mt. Bachelor is one of the great legends of the Northwest.  Located in central Oregon, Mt. Bachelor rises 9,065 feet from the high desert floor creating an endless winter from Thanksgiving to July!  The mountain has an almost mythic reputation among purists for the quality of its snow -- a light, dry, high-desert powder unlike any other in this part of the world.  Three hundred pristine inches a year dust 70 runs well distributed across 360 degrees of this extinct volcano.  A comprehensive series of chairlifts gives access to the entire mountain covering powder chutes, forested trails, cruising runs, above-the-tree line snow fields with fun for every ability level.  By careful design, beginner, intermediate and advanced terrain is accessible off most lifts so families and friends can enjoy their favorite type of skiing and still stay in the same general area to ride the lifts.  With 3,686 acres of skiable terrain, you won’t get bored with this majestic beauty.   What a fabulous place to welcome in the New Year!
