Sky Tavern is unique among local ski areas in that is not only a nonprofit, but also a co-op that is run by volunteers who man the lifts, teach the lessons and perform every task around the resort to teach kids how to ski and ride. Sky Tavern is the country’s oldest and largest nonprofit learn to ski and ride program.
Seasons passes are required to access the ski area along with a few hours of your time for adults or kids must be registered in one of their programs.
Snowmaking | For the first time in the ski area’s history, Sky Tavern will be making snow this season. Two new snowmaking guns are coming from Techno Alpin and will be installed at Sky Tavern.
Shop the Swap | Help the nonprofit that runs the ski hill continue its program at its annual Ski Swap on Nov. 18 and 19.
New mountain bike trails | Sky Tavern offers a fantastic mountain bike trail system in the summer and recently completed the new Sutherland Trail and the 4-mile Tamarack Lake Trail that connects to College Boy trail. There are also plans in the works for a shuttle to ferry mountain bikers to the top of Highway 431 to connect into the Sky Tavern trail system, which can be ridden into Reno. E-bikes are also allowed on the trails.
