Mission Ridge Ski resort is open at last. The mountain will operate Chairs 1, 2, and Pika Peak rope tow will also be in operation. The Ski school will also be open as well as the Chair 5 Pub and Ka Wham Cafe.  The 100 Laps Terrain Park will not open this weekend but is planning on December 10th if conditions permit. The resort is celebrating its 50th season.

Lift ticket prices will be discounted to $39 for ages 25-69 and $29 for ages 10-24 to reflect the limited opening of chairlifts and terrain. Lift tickets for ages 9 & under will be $5 and $15 for ages 70+.

Mission Ridge is located in North Central Washington, 12 miles south of Wenatchee.  The ski area has the second highest base area in the state at 4,570 feet, and more than 36 runs spread over 2,000 acres and 2,250 feet of vertical.
