The area had two chair lifts and a rope tow and has a total of 13 runs with a vertical drop of approximately 750 feet (230 m).

The single chair lift was damaged by avalanche during a large storm during February 11–13, 2001, which left approximately 7 feet of snow.

On March 12, 2006, the Pasadena Star reported that Lynn Newcomb and Rick Metcalf, a Southern California businessman, wanted to purchase Mt.
