RENO, Nev. – Mt. Rose Ski Tahoe’s popular “Open Late” schedule is back. Starting Friday, Feb. 27, the resort will keep select lifts spinning and resort services including Wildslide Tubing open late on both Fridays and Saturdays through the end of the season. Operations will continue until 5:30 p.m. both days until Daylight Savings ends on March 8. After that, the schedule extends until 6 p.m.

“With longer days ahead and mid-winter snow conditions here now, we’re bringing back our ‘Open Late’ schedule to give skiers and riders the opportunity for bonus runs with an additional two hours on Fridays and Saturdays,” said Mike Pierce, Mt. Rose Ski Tahoe marketing director. “For those with a competitive edge, our public race league, Friday Nite Gates, is also returning.”

The Northwest Express, Lakeview Express, Wizard and Magic lifts will stay open late on Fridays and Saturdays, along with the Snowdeck off the Lakeside trail offering beer, wine, snacks, DJs on Friday afternoons, and stellar views of Lake Tahoe. Wildslide Tubing will also be open late on Fridays and Saturdays.

The “Ski G.I.F.” Friday Daily Special and “Sleep in Saturdays” discounted tickets offered after 12 p.m. make Fridays and Saturdays even better with the later skiing and snowboarding and a great deal on lift access. For those who want to extend the weekend, “Bonus Mondays” offer heavily discounted Monday lifts tickets for anyone who skis at Rose the previous Saturday or Sunday (void holidays).
