Our team has worked extra hard to break down the mountain quickly, so you can enjoy the remnants of this historic season. Uphill access is now allowed. The mountain is fully accessible now, but trail limitations may occur as we begin work on our newest lift, DeMoisy Express.

To address many of your questions, Strawberry is not closed for the year. Our ski patrol spent the last few days on avalanche mitigation, digging out lift terminals, sign lines. The snow has been unstable in some areas so cleanup has been quite the project. It’ll open soon.

Due to recent snow fall, delayed openings at neighboring resorts and the holiday, we are experiencing a higher than usual volume of traffic that is extremely rare for us. For this reason, we anticipate running out of parking today.

In additional to avalanche mitigation, snow clearance is an issue on several lifts. We have an 18 foot base, which is unprecedented. There are several points where we have to push snow from underneath to safely open. That has been completed on Wildcat Express, it is now open.
