THE FIRST DAY OF BUCK HILL UPHILL ACCESS IS ON FRIDAY, JANUARY 2ND, 2026!

Do you daydream of hitting the slopes with no crowds and making first turns on a groomed trail? Do you crave more adventure in your life? Maybe you’re looking for a place to find solitude to escape the outside world? Are you planning a backcountry trip and looking for a place to get in shape and get comfortable with your gear? Or maybe you’re just looking for a new way to exercise that’s not going to a stuffy gym that’s overcrowded with people judging what you're doing?

Buck Hills UpHill Access combines the best of the outdoor experience with the opportunity to separate yourself from the rest of society. Come join us for an uphill tour. Standing atop overlooking a beautiful sunrise over Crystal Lake, having wondered for years what it would be like to make first turns. Adjust your goggles and drop into pure bliss.

If that sounds like you, grab your gear and join us at Buck Hill for the Uphill Access!.
