What's New This Season at Schweitzer Mountain Resort
Schweitzer Upgrades Lifts and Amenities for 2012-2013 Winter. Over $1 Million Invested for Capital Improvements. We've purchased two new grooming vehicles to keep the slopes in top shape. Extensive trail pruning over the summer will allow quicker openings of popular trails this winter. A completely new website launched in September, with integration into numerous social media channels and featuring HD video. Mobile phone e-ticketing to launch prior to season opening.
Other projects include doubling the size of the Gourmandie market, remodeling the interior of the Ski and Ride center, replacing the drive and chairs on Musical Chairs, replacing the electrical system on the Great Escape Quad and upgrading lodging amenities.
