That's right, including next year's passholders. Welcome to the family. Lifts run from 10 to 7.

Saturday, April 26 – 80's DJ Party + Base Lodge Afterparty
The Alpine Cabin is calling—another Saturday full of sunshine, beats, & bubbly from 1–7 PM. As the sun dips low, the base-area party continues with a Grateful Dead cover band from 5–8 PM—spinning classics, channeling Shakedown vibes, & keeping the long, strange trip alive at Black.

Join us for the biggest party in Black Mountain history as we celebrate 90 years of skiing, community, and unforgettable memories. We’re closing out the season with a final DJ Party at the Alpine Cabin, a full day of live music at the base, mouthwatering food and drink specials, and giveaways that’ll keep the stoke high. As the sun sets, get ready for a grand finale you won’t forget—an unreal fireworks show lighting up the mountain sky. Fiercely independent for 90 years, Black Mountain has always done things a little differently—and we’re damn proud of it.
We’re not coasting to the finish—we’re making snow, throwing rowdy parties, and setting our sights on being the last open ski area in the State. Can this little mountain make it to May 3rd?
I would bet on Black.
Thanks for being here.
