Rotarun to provide free day passes for all on New Year’s Eve Day

HAILEY, Idaho – December 28, 2023 – Public skiing at Rotarun Ski Area will officially open for the season on Sunday, Dec. 31 from 12-4 p.m. Skiers and snowboarders are encouraged to come take a few turns with free one-day passes valid for Sunday provided at the ticket window. 

The local La Parilla food truck will be onsite with tacos, enchiladas, burritos, burgers, and more for sale—the makings for a perfect tailgate afternoon with family and friends.

“We are excited to open the hill for free public skiing this Sunday afternoon,” said Riley Berman, Rotarun’s Mountain Manager. “While we’re not quite ready for night skiing with the limited snowpack, the hill is in great shape to come out with the family and make some turns to welcome the new year.”

Rotarun Ski Area is open to skiers and snowboarders of all ages and abilities and hill access is via one surface platter lift. Free parking is available at the base area. Public skiing hours are Wednesdays and Fridays from 6-9 p.m., and Saturdays and Sundays from 12-4 p.m. Public skiing is FREE on Wednesdays from 6-9 p.m.
