Pebble Creek Ski Area - Idaho
The old timers and the new young dare devils still loudly proclaim, "If you can ski Pebble Creek you can ski anywhere," But now, Pebble Creek is also a good place to learn to ski. The dream of going up and over to the "superior" slopes on the east side of the Mount Bonneville remains strong.
Celebrating 57 years of skiing excellence, Pebble Creek is a vertical playground that attracts extreme skiers but also offers plenty of terrain variety for other skill levels. Located just south of the City of Pocatello, in the Caribou National Forest, Pebble Creek boasts virtually non-existent lift lines. The 40 member PSIA/AASI Member Ski & Snowboard School offers a wide range of group programs as well as private lessons.
Pebble Creek plays host to 1,100 skiable acres, 54 runs and an abundance of annual snowfall, providing enough playful terrain for beginners and those demanding an honest challenge. The rental shop carries high performance shaped skis and the lodge offers cafeteria-style dining and fresh home-baked treats. Renowned for its fun and friendly atmosphere Pebble Creek offers great winter fun at a great value!
After a day on the slopes, it's only a few miles to Pocatello with its many hotels and restaurants featuring cuisine with a regional flair. If your tastes run to the calm and quaint, you'll enjoy the natural volcanic mineral baths and western hospitality of Lava Hot Springs to soothe and relax those tired ski muscles.
