Up and Away

Depart from the South Ridge base area on one of the six-person open-air chairs, or in a gondola cabin, for an 7-minute ride to the top of North Peak. Once you're there, you can take in the panoramic scenery or explore nearby hiking trails. When you're ready, ride one of the enclosed gondola cabins back down, or take a hiking trail back to the base lodge.


This scenic ride is dog-friendly, kid-approved, and perfect for all ages—grandparents included. Just note that all scenic lift tickets are non-refundable, non-transferable, and date specific.
