Mountain Parking & Shuttles
On weekends and holidays, you are encouraged to check our website snow report page for the "parking meter" (parking availability) or call the snowphone at 342-2100 for updated parking lot capacity and information. Below is information about locating parking lots and hints for finding a spot.
Shuttle Service:
Free shuttles loop through the main parking lot from the skier pick-up/drop-off area near the J.R.Simplot Lodge, past the GoldRush Tubing Hill to Nordic Center approximately every 20-minutes. During peak weekends and holidays, shuttles also run from the Silver Queen Parking lot to the Pioneer Lodge.
Carpooling:
Carpooling is encouraged for environmental as well as practical reasons (mountain parking spots are limited, especially on weekends!) Please use Bogus Basin's
FREE Park & Ride lot in Boise on 30th between Fairview and Main.
Do NOT park for more than 2 hours in the Ridley's Market parking lot or your car will be towed. Find other skiers and riders who are interested in carpooling to Bogus Basin through
RideShareOnline, a service of ACHD and Commuteride.
