Cascades, United States 🇺🇸
Mt Bachelor is the largest ski resort in the Pacific Northwest, a stratovolcano you can ski 360 degrees around from the summit. Huge Cascade snowfall feeds one of the longest seasons in the United States, often running from late November well into May, and the mountain sits just outside Bend in central Oregon.
Generally yes. From 1737 m at the base to 2763 m up top, the profile holds snow well across a normal winter (score 88/100).
This is more of a valley base than a slopeside village, so expect a lift, train or shuttle to the snow each morning. Staying central, near the main lift, saves the most time.
With 88 km of piste on 12 lifts, it is a mid-size area, easy to get to know over a long weekend. The terrain is balanced (19 green, 43 blue, 37 red, 25 black), which suits a mixed-level group skiing together.
Mt Bachelor stands out for a vast, multi-sector domain.
The season usually runs Nov 28 to May 26 (about 26 weeks). For the most dependable cover, the deep-winter window of January to February is the safe bet. Conditions soften as spring arrives, so earlier in the window is the safer call.
