Despite its relatively low elevation and lack of significant mountain ranges, Boyce Park Ski Resort still offers a fun and accessible skiing experience for beginners and families. The resort typically relies on artificial snowmaking to supplement natural snowfall during the winter season.
The best trails for intermediate skiers are the Olympic and Giant Slalom, with challenging terrains and long runs. Boyce Park was the first ski resort in the United States to offer night skiing, and it was also the first to use artificial snowmaking machines.
