Summary June Mountain

Summary of the ski resort June Mountain

Description June Mountain

Even on the approach from Mono Lake along Highway 395, you can see the forest-clearing runs at June Mountain. You can park directly at the base station and then take an old double chairlift without safety bars up to the June Meadows Chalet.

From there, the long detachable quad chairlift J6 takes you up to Rainbow Summit at an elevation of 3,060 meters. The double chairlift J4, which serves the upper part of the mountain, also ends up here at the summit. You can take the long and very easy forest-clearing run back down to the June Meadows Chalet.

From Rainbow Summit, you can also glide along Rainbow Ridge to the detachable quad chairlift J7, which takes you up to June Mountain at 3,075 meters, the highest point in the ski area. From here, half a dozen difficult and very difficult runs descend beneath the quad chairlift back to the valley. Alternatively, you can choose the beautifully groomed Matterhorn or Schatzi runs.

Another option is the double chairlift J2 from the June Meadows Chalet, which connects to the quad chairlift up to June Mountain J7. The Terrain Parks are located at J2. The runs at this lift are very easy and ideal for practicing. The short double chairlift J3 takes you from the base station of J7 up to J2, saving you the hassle of pushing yourself along, as the base station of the quad chairlift to June Mountain is located in a hollow.

For the steep valley runs, a lot of snow is needed so that the black runs can be skied. There is the Canyon Trail, which also leads down to the valley as a connecting trail. If there isn’t enough snow, you have to take the double chairlift back down to the valley, which is a bit of an adventure since the lift has no safety bar.

For a break, the June Mountain Chalet awaits. Here you'll find the Antler Bar and, despite self-service, very good food in a well-kept atmosphere with a sun terrace. Another option is Stew Pot Slim's higher up in the ski area, where you can enjoy simpler food on the sun terrace.

The June Mountain ski area is never crowded, and you can ski and snowboard on perfectly groomed runs of all difficulty levels—a true mountain for connoisseurs.
