We would like to officially introduce Dreamer to you all. Dreamer is our newest lift, servicing Treasure Hill and taking on the former duties of Payday (Chair 3). Dreamer is a brand new Doppelmayr quad and has a different alignment than Payday did. The bottom terminal is much closer to Grubstake making it easier to get to from the lodge. It unloads a little higher up slope than Payday, and closer to Gold Chute. Speaking of Gold Chute, we’ve also added a new section to that trail that extends up to Deeamer, and there’s no longer a big flat area that you have to skate across to get to the trail. It’s all a gentle downhill now!

We are so excited to have Dreamer complete and ready to transport visitors on their next great adventure here at 49° North. Big thanks to Doppelmayr USA for all their help and support making this new lift a reality!

The hard work has been happening all spring and into the summer, but now the progress is really starting to show on the new beginner lift on Treasure Hill.

The Payday lift served our visitors well for many, many years, but this new Doppelmayr quad will take that experience to the next level for all of our newer skiers and riders, families, kids, and lesson programs.

FYI: We will be offering a limited number of Payday chairs for purchase in just over a week. Sign up to our newsletter for all the details, but sales will take place on a first come, first serve basis through our webstore at shop.ski49n.com starting Friday, July 17th at 5pm.

This Memorial Day we hope you will join us as we remember and honor those who’ve made the ultimate sacrifice to safeguard our freedoms and way of life.
As we spend time with friends and family this Memorial Day, it’s a great opportunity to reflect on the freedoms and liberties that we enjoy each day, and all of those individuals who put themselves in harm’s way so that we can continue to do so.
From all of us at 49° North Mountain Resort, thank you.

We’re putting it on repeat for one more day of sun-filled, snow-sliding, mountain goodness tomorrow!

The people make the mountain. Sunday, April 5th will be our final day of operations for the 25-26 Winter Season. Come and celebrate with us!!!
