Earlier this spring, we shared our vision for bringing lift-serviced access back to the Outpost area. Now, we’re excited to say it’s happening✅
This summer, work begins on a new rope tow that will restore access to the full Outpost area for the 2026-27 winter season. The new lift will run from the intersection of Prospector and That A Way to the top of That A Way and Bronco, bringing skiers and riders back to the legendary terrain once served by the Outpost Double.
And that’s just the beginning👀
Permitting and lift procurement are underway for a new chairlift in the footprint of the former Outpost Double, with a target opening for the 2027-28 winter season in time to help celebrate Pico Mountain’s 90th anniversary. Details on the lift’s capacity and manufacturer will be announced at a later date.
These investments reflect our continued commitment under independent ownership to preserve what makes Pico special while thoughtfully building for the future. It’s all about keeping the Pico experience strong for the families, locals, and loyal skiers and riders who love this mountain.
