    Saddleback Mountain History

    In the six decades since the first T-Bar started spinning, a lot has changed at Saddleback. And while every ski mountain has its own history, we think it’s pretty safe to say that few have experienced quite so many twists and turns as ours.

    Our Legacy

      Event Calendar
    On December 31, 1960, Saddleback started spinning On December 31, 1960, Saddleback started spinning the T bar for the first time. Since then, this mountain has seen just about everything a ski hill can see. Big winters. Lean ones. Years when things felt easy, and years when they didn’t. There were moments when the lifts weren’t spinning the way we wanted them to, but even then, Saddlebackers still found a way to stick together, get their turns, and battle for a better future. That part never went away.
 
When this place came back, it wasn’t just a reopening. It was a reawakening. A team coming back together. A community deciding that we were worth fighting for. Employees, locals, families, weekend regulars, people who learned to ski here decades ago and people just finding it now. Everyone pulling in the same direction, doing the work, believing Saddleback was worth it.
 
So this New Year’s Eve, 65 years winters in, we’re celebrating all of it. The history, the comeback, the community, and what’s still ahead. We really think you should join us. Doors open at 8:00 pm. Live music from Jake Hunsinger and the Rock Bottom Band from 9:00 pm to midnight. A toast at 11:59 pm as we count it down together and welcome the New Year and Saddleback’s 65th birthday the only way that makes sense: in the Pub together.

    ’Twas a few nights before Christmas, when all ac ’Twas a few nights before Christmas, when all across the hill
A few creatures were stirring, out in the chill
The skis were all stacked by the lodge with care
In hopes that fresh snowfall soon would be there

The mittens were hung by the boot room just right
And Saddlebackers dreamed of first tracks at first light
With goggles on tables and base layers laid
We settled in early, the plans had been made

When out on the mountain there rose such a sound
We peeked from the window and looked all around
Away to the slopes we flew like a flash
To see what was making that late night crash

The moon on the corduroy, freshly laid tight
Gave a shimmer of silver to the calm winter night
When what to our wondering eyes should appear
But the only folks stirring, the ones we hold dear

The snowmakers were humming, their guns were roaring
And groomers were cruising, the clean lines restoring
Now they’re on Tightline, getting it ready to fly
That’s up next for the team, and it’s sure to be prime

More snow is on the way, it’s lining up fast
A good old fashioned White Christmas, a welcome forecast
And over on Wheeler, where the park will sit
The lineup is being dialed, every feature is lit

They shaped and they packed it, they measured it true
Obsessing over landings and rails for the crew
So come tomorrow, it’s ripping, it’s ready to shine
@saddlebackterrainparks are firing, and the timing is fine

So close to Christmas, with winter in high gear
We’re getting the hill ready for your favorite part of the year
And we heard the heroes exclaim as they rode out of sight
“Happy winter break to all, and to all a good night”

    Shortest day of the year? Couldn’t tell. With th Shortest day of the year? Couldn’t tell. With the first turns on Grey Ghost and the Nest’s launch of the DJed Sunday brunch, we were too busy. Join us next Sunday to bring the party!
    “It rained an inch last night, I’m sure it was “It rained an inch last night, I’m sure it was terrible.” 🤦‍♂️🫠

Thanks to a thoughtful plan from our groomers, snowmakers, ops team, and a little fresh snow at the end of yesterday’s storm, the consensus around the mountain was that you wouldn’t know it rained as much as it did, and it was “surprising how good it was” today. 

The weather is looking good for the next few weeks through Christmas and NYE, with a few flakes in the forecast currently! This is going to be an awesome holiday break, come crash the bash!
