Hogadon Ski Area is a hidden gem with a lot to offer. It’s a great place for families, with a small, manageable layout that makes it easy to keep track of kids—I feel safe letting them ski without worrying about them getting lost. The staff is friendly and welcoming, and the area is relatively affordable compared to larger resorts. It’s also a short drive from town, with a convenient drop-off area and parking. The terrain offers a mix of groomed runs, off-piste challenges, and even access to backcountry skiing, making it enjoyable for a variety of skill levels. However, there is limited beginner terrain, especially early in the season, which can be frustrating for those just learning to ski. One area where Hogadon could improve is in inclusivity and accessibility. While the lodge is modern and ADA-compliant, other aspects of the ski area, like the aging chairlift, pose challenges for visitors with disabilities. There are also limited inclusive programs for adaptive skiers, which could be a great addition to the area’s offerings. Expanding these programs and addressing accessibility barriers would make Hogadon a more welcoming destination for everyone. Overall, Hogadon is a wonderful local ski area with a lot of potential to grow. The mix of terrain, affordable pricing, and family-friendly atmosphere make it worth a visit. I look forward to seeing how the area continues to develop in the future.

I was in town for a business trip, the group wanted to see the city of Casper and surrounding area, we drove up the mountain to Hogadon Ski are, they were in the process of adding snow to many runs but the view and the food was great comfort food before the banquet in the evening in Casper. Many plan to return her with their families and enjoy the day.
