Get Your Cali Pass at Dodge Ridge Resort
Ski at Mountain High, Bear Valley and China Peak!

Entering its 73rd season, core family values remain the foundation of Dodge Ridge – a ski resort loved by families for generations of skiing and riding. Dodge Ridge was founded in 1950 on the ideals of family, by a man with a dream to provide a better life for his. Beginning with a sketch on the inside of a matchbook, Dodge Ridge has become an established ski resort known and loved by many throughout the years.

Many avid Bay and Central Valley area winter enthusiasts have already made the switch. Waiting for them is a family-friendly atmosphere and smaller crowds. Shorter lift lines allow more actual skiing and boarding.

Perhaps just as important, they like the idea of a less time consuming drive to and from the region as well. Get Your Season Pass Now!

While the mountain is well known to Central Valley riders; skiers and boarders should note that it is just a three and a hour drive from the communities surrounding San Francisco, even closer for those living in the Central Valley!

So get excited, wax your boards and make a reservation. Dodge Ridge Mountain Resort is here for you!
