Moose Mountain Ski and Snowboard Area
Moose Mountain Ski and Snowboard area in Fairbanks, Alaska is located on south, west, and north facing slopes overlooking the Tanana Valley and the Alaska Range. Alaskan skiers and snowboarders love to ride Moose Mountain.
Due to our southwest exposure, we are shielded from the prevailing northeasterly winds and get hours of sun each day. With Fairbanks’ typical temperature inversion Moose Mountain averages 20 to 30 degrees warmer than temperatures in town.
With 1,300 feet of vertical, most of Moose Mountain ski and snowboard terrain is intermediate and advanced and not recommended for beginners. In 2017, we added a short beginner tow to access the gentler terrain near the Base Lodge. It has become popular with kids and beginning adults trying the sport for the first time.
For the 2024/25 season we will provide bus service from the base lodge to stops along the summit, the fastest, warmest ski lifts anywhere.
