I am grateful to have any access to the snow on this huge volcanic peak rising 14,179 above sea level. The views are worth the slow lift speeds. A plus: I have never encountered a lift line. But..parking can be a nightmare, especially on weekends when you might be waiting in line until a space becomes available. Because there is no employee housing -or shuttles from Mt. Shasta- dont expect much when it comes to services . They do the best with what theyve got but its a short season . If the cost of lift tickets matched the terrain, it would be a great family resort. Bring chairs and lunches for tailgating breaks on a sunny day & it beats any day in the city!

Im an experienced skier but decided to learn how to snowboard on this mountain, and it is great. The lifts are quick even during peak winter hours and there are many runs that go to each lift so one lift up can mean about 4 different runs on the way down. The rental staff are always really nice as well.

Its a great park. They just opened a new lift thats amazing. The lift crew was my favorite they know how to have a good time.
