Hudson Chair Scenic Skyrides

Summer Events Kick Off This Friday!

Summer is nearly here! The mountain is alive again with sunshine and fresh, green leaves. While summer operations don’t fully kick off until July, we’re starting the fun early with a few events this June.

This Friday, we’re starting our free summer concert series, Music at the Bowl. The North & South Dakotas will be playing outside The Station this Friday, June 12th, from 5:30pm – 9pm. Join us down at The Ski Bowl for a night of music, food and drink from Timber & Thyme, and scenic skyrides on The Hudson Chair. Skyrides will be open 3pm – 7pm, along with Trailside Outfitters. Learn more here and see the rest of the line-up through August!

Next Saturday, June 20th, we’re hosting our first Gore Mountain Cruise-In! This casual yet high-energy car meet at The Ski Bowl will be happening on June 20th and July 18th from 11am – 4pm. Enjoy a day of Scenic Skyrides on the Hudson Chair, food and drink at Timber & Thyme, and meeting fellow car enthusiasts. It’s free to attend, whether you’re admiring the cars or showing off your own. Be sure to register online if you’re showing your car- spots are limited!

Summer operations officially open for the 2026 summer/fall season starting Friday, July 3rd! They’ll be running Wednesday – Sunday, 10am – 7pm with scenic skyrides on The Hudson Chair and hiking from both the main base and The Ski Bowl. Got your 2026/27 Season Pass?
