This place needs to be closed immediately. This once Great Ski Mountain is in ruins and a mess! The Manager Ken Marlatt ( he needs to be fired ) and the Owners want the maximum profit while providing the least amount of service possible! Charging $160 ( + tax ) with only gondola lift open it's ridiculous. Stay away until there is a change in Managment! .

I bought season tickets for all my family in the past.
It’s no longer the case. They don’t make snow, lifts are closed,
I love ski Apache. I hope they turn things around.
Until then I will travel north.

Not worth what you are charging! Too much green showing, not enough runs open, not willing to invest in a better resort. Even the parking situation was terrible. What happened to the fun events? Did not get me started on the restroom and food situation. No place for kids to play, no more kiddie corral, no discount.

Ski apache has the most boarded up closed buildings slope side 1) burger stand chair 1, 2(top of chair 6 3) bottom of chair 8. 4) base area. largest out house of any ski area ( over 10 stalls in one building) you can imagine how that smells
At Christmas, no ski school with trained instructors, fewest employee's of any ski area, worst mantiance lifts and snow preparation ( grooming). Ski apache is grossly over priced. I'm surprised they don't charge for the mountain Air

Ski Apache was a blast yesterday even though the mountain got shut down, we had the time of our life's. Talked with Ken Marlatt the Director of operations and he asked if my family and I were having a great time and told him Yes because we were there to have a wonderful time but a lot of people were very disappointed that the mountain got shut down and I told him that I completely understood because it was sketchy up towards the top and and conditions were just unsafe and I completely understand that Safety of the people on the mountain comes first. So please if you were there on the 19th of Feb. Please understand they were only looking after the safety of people. We have to support our local Mountain and Ski Apache needs your understanding and support! Please come back to SKI APACHE and have the time of your Life. Jason

Went today with a friend a we both live locally. A little before noon Ski Apache Personnel announced the mountain was closing and to please leave. After leaving found out they kept mountain open all day. The did this on a day where the tickets were at highest price of year. What a scam. Horrible to do not just to locals but to tourists who are our single biggest revenue source for our community. They offered no type of even partial refunds and then continued to sell tickets and operate in a manipulate manner.

My family and I decided to try ski Apache this year. We typically travel to Colorado. There was a bunny lift and a green “hill” lift open. The resort was not at all prepared for the amount of people visiting the week after Christmas. We got in line at 11am for rentals. After spending two hours in line (they wouldn’t allow half day priced tickets), we were able to ski down a total of 5x due to the long line at the only green lift. Some people were literally walking up the hill and skiing back down because it was faster than waiting in the lift line. For what we paid for skis and lift tickets for our family- that equates to $150 per ski down. Keep in mind the ride down took less than 2 mins. 10/10 do not recommend!

Not worth time, effort or resources. Go north.
