Willamette Pass

Willamette Pass is a ski area in Oregon sitting at 6673 feet elevation, offering 1557 vertical feet of skiing and snowboarding terrain. The mountain operates during the winter snow season and provides a regional option for Pacific Northwest skiers and riders looking to access alpine skiing without traveling to major destination resorts. Access is via Highway 58, which crosses the pass and connects the Willamette Valley to central Oregon—the same route that provides year-round vehicle access to the area. Winter conditions typically run from December through March, though the exact season length depends on snowfall; spring and early winter shoulder seasons can be variable. Summer brings hiking and sightseeing to the high-elevation pass zone, though the ski lifts are not operational.
