Sun Valley Resort will commence
summer-season chairlift services on Bald Mountain on Saturday, June 26.
The resort plans to operate two chairlifts
on Bald Mountain daily through Sept. 6. Both the River Run Express and the
Lookout Express lifts will open at 9 a.m. each day to take passengers to the
Lookout Summit of Bald Mountain.
The two lifts will run continuously
throughout the day until approximately 3:45 p.m. The last round-trip ride from
the bottom of River Run will depart at 3:15 p.m. The last one-way ride to the
summit will depart at 3:30 p.m.
The last ride down the mountain will
depart at 3:45 p.m.
Lift services for mountain bikers will
commence on July 1, company officials announced.
The Bald Mountain Trail system provides
nearly 28 miles of varied hiking and mountain-biking terrain. The eight-mile
Warm Springs Trail provides hikers and bikers with a picturesque descent over
the back side of Bald Mountain to the Warm Springs base area.
