Brundage Mountain

Brundage opened in the 1960s on the mountain above McCall named for pioneer settler Fred Brundage; its lifts grew from a community rope-tow era into a full resort with 1,900 acres of terrain, a snowcat-skiing operation on the adjacent Powder Permit terrain, and the region’s famous reputation for the deep, dry ‘McCall powder.’ The resort’s community-rooted ownership era kept lift-ticket culture local; its summit looks across the Salmon Mountains’ snowfields and the Payette valley.
