Saturday March 6, 2010

(This event was postponed from February 6th because of the bad weather)

Meet at Mountain High West between 8 and 10am to purchase group ski lift tickets at the WRAD table inside the cafeteria at Mt. High West. Look for the WRAD banner and signing hands to find us.

Special group ski lift tickets are $35 per person for adults and $25 for a child 12 years old and under. This is a BIG savings as a GROUP so please show up between 8am and 10am to buy and get your lift tickets from us.

DIRECTIONS:

Mountain High is Southern California's closest winter resort with no mountain driving. Located just an hour or so from L.A. and Orange County, you won't find an easier drive to the mountains anywhere.

From Los Angeles
Mountain High Resort is just 20 minutes off Interstate 15, making it quick and easy to find. Simply take Interstate 10, the 60 Freeway or the new 210 Freeway East to Interstate 15 North. Exit Highway 138 West and make a left on Highway 2. You will find Mountain High just three miles past the town of Wrightwood. Travel time from downtown Los Angeles is just 90 minutes.

From Orange County
The addition of the toll roads has made travel from South Orange County even easier. Take the 91 Freeway to Interstate 15 North. Exit Highway 138 West and make a left on Highway 2. You will find Mountain High just three miles past the town of Wrightwood. Travel time from Orange County is less than 75 minutes.

From San Fernando and Antelope Valleys
Mountain High is so close to the Antelope Valley that its night lighting can be seen from Palmdale, Lancaster and the entire surrounding area. From the San Fernando Valley take Interstate 5 to Highway 14 North. Exit Pearblossom Highway 138 East and make a right on Largo Vista. Then follow the signs to Mountain High. Drive time from the junction of Highway 14 and Highway 138 is just 45 minutes.
