Anthony Lakes Ski Resort. This gem is so worth the trip out to Eastern Oregon. An independently owned ski hill with a long history and strong sense of community. It's a locals mountain that welcomes the visitor. Amazing snow, great staff, fun inbounds skiing with endless back and sidecountry terrain. AFFORDABILITY!!!
