Mount Bachelor ski resort (stylized as Mt. Bachelor) is a ski resort located in Central Oregon, approximately 22 miles (35 km) west of Bend, along Century Drive Highway. The ski area is on the northern side of Mount Bachelor, a stratovolcano rising atop a volcanic shield in the Cascade Range.
Since 2001, the ski area has been owned by Powdr Corporation of Park City, Utah.[2] It is the largest ski resort (by area) by more than 1,000 acres (4.0 km2) in Oregon,[3] the second largest single-mountain ski resort in the U.S., behind Vail in Colorado, and the sixth largest of all ski resorts in the nation.[clarification needed]
Mount Bachelor offers one of the nation's longest ski seasons, mid-November through the end of May (weather permitting).[4]
