Ski Sunrise

Ski Sunrise is hidden away in the Angeles National Forest in Southern California. A quad aerial lift, two surface lifts and one rope tow service 24 runs, with additional open-glade skiing. Ski Sunrise is the perfect place for families. It is big enough to offer a variety of terrain for all ability levels. Snowboarders are allowed on designated trails.

Ski Sunrise is one of the West's only upside down ski areas. You drive your car to the top of the mountain, and without waiting, ski right down to the foot of the slopes and take the various lifts back up again.
