Tamarack Resort is nestled in the heart of Idaho's Payette River Mountains and is known for its diverse and skiable terrain, suitable for all skill levels. The resort receives an ample amount of snowfall, which contributes to a ski season that generally runs from December to April. The terrain includes glades, steeps, and cornices, as well as a variety of groomed runs that cater to beginners and intermediates. Tamarack also features a terrain park for those looking to practice their freestyle skills. While there are no specific backcountry areas within the resort boundaries, the surrounding Payette River Mountains offer backcountry opportunities for experienced adventurers. Cross country skiing can be enjoyed on several groomed trails, and the resort does not offer night skiing. The lift system includes a mix of high-speed quads and surface lifts, efficiently transporting skiers up the mountain. The views from the resort are stunning, with vistas of Lake Cascade and the surrounding mountain ranges. Tamarack is considered family-friendly, offering ski and snowboard lessons, and a range of other winter activities such as ice skating, snowshoeing, and snow tubing. While snowmobiling and sledding are not available directly at the resort, the surrounding area provides ample opportunities for these activities.
