Mt. Bachelor Clears Appeal Period

Ski Area Improvement

It looks like the Mt. Bachelor Ski Area Improvement Project is going forward! No appeals were filed with the Deschutes National Forest during the 45-day appeal period which ended April 1, 2013.

“This makes the completion of a long process,” said Dave Rathbun, Mt. Bachelor’s president and general manager.

The plan calls for new lifts and trails on the east side of the mountain, base-area infrastructure, summer activities including downhill mountain biking, and other improvements. The changes should help the mountain be more attractive for visitors year-round.
