Badger Mountain Ski Area is a small ski area, 4 miles SW of Waterville, Washington. It is located on the northeastern flank of Badger Mountain. Established in 1939, it is currently a volunteer-run ski area sponsored by the local Waterville Lions Club. The ski area has one T-bar, two rope tows, and offers sledding. The resort has a relatively low elevation, of 3,145 ft (959 m), therefore the ski area does not usually receive adequate snow until January. The ski area has one small lodge with a kitchen and fireplace. Badger Mt. advertises the "Lowest Priced Lift Ticket in North America" ($15 as of January 2025).[1][2][3]
