Ratings Change: Consistency to Resiliency

Here at PeakRankings, we aim to provide the most helpful and transparent content we can. That being said, we’re always iterating on our methodology and decided this week to make a change to our Mountain Score ratings scale.

A Note From the Team in the Wake of the COVID-19 Outbreak

As many of you have heard already, most major ski resorts across North America have announced closures in the wake of the COVID-19 coronavirus outbreak. Some of these closures are temporary for now, but we think it would be surprising to see any of these resorts open again this season.

A Comprehensive Guide on COVID-19 Resort Policies

In the wake of COVID-19, we’ve seen closures from every major North American ski resort. Many of you have likely bought now-unusable lift tickets or passes, and in these trying times, it hasn’t always been easy to find refund policies. To make things easier for those affected, we’ve compiled a comprehensive guide on closure, exchange, and refund policies by resort.

A Statement of Solidarity

PeakRankings stands in solidarity with the Black community. We'd like to say a few words in light of horrifying recent events.

Score Change: Whistler Blackcomb Removes Horstman T-Bar

Whistler Blackcomb removed their high-alpine Horstman T-Bar, causing the resort’s navigation score to drop. Despite this knock, Whistler remains our highest-rated area.
