Here are five things we’re doing to green up our summer, plus a look at the bigger stewardship effort underway across the mountain. 👇

Well, this is pretty neat. An indie game developer is building a Ski Resort Tycoon game, and it turns out he’s a Sugar Bowl skier. Look closely and you might recognize some familiar terrain in the promo material 👀

Very cool to see the Bowl make its way into the gaming world.

Before there was a gondola, guests crossed Van Norden Meadow on tractor-pulled sleds to reach Sugar Bowl. Then, in 1953, one bold idea changed everything.

Join Sugar Bowl Ambassadors Xander Guldman and Indy Boyer as they explore the history of the West Coast's first gondola and ride into the next chapter.
