This summer, Purgatory has seven activities on tap — offering fun for everyone from thrill-seekers to scenery-lovers.

We believe that the best memories are shared on the slopes: The gentle fall of snowflakes landing on our cheeks while riding the chairlift, the exhilaration of mastering the moguls or landing a new trick, and the endless smiles after another great day of skiing or snowboarding. We also believe in future memories, and that the best is yet to come. The 2020/2021 Power Pass is on sale now, with exclusive benefits when purchased before May 29. We look forward to seeing you again soon!

In what ways are you #MissingPurg? We’re missing skiing fresh powder,

that you shared. Check out our latest blog to see photos of engagements, powder days, and more.
