The New Gray Butte Lift
You can be a part of the change!
Some of you may have heard the rumor that we are adding a new lift. Our team has been hard at work making this a reality. We are so excited to announce the Gray Butte Lift, which has been a long time in the making. The new lift will service much higher elevation, epic terrain, and access to our backcountry area.
In order to receive the required permits to install a new lift on Gray Butte, the county is requesting public input. We hope they hear the same support we hear from all of you.
Please email planning@co.siskiyou.ca.us your support for the project by April 14th at 5 pm. For your convenience, the button above is a preformatted email in support of the project. You can also show support by attending our Siskiyou County Planning Commission meeting on April 20th at 9 am. This meeting will take place at the Board of Supervisors Chambers, 311 Fourth St., Yreka, CA. 96097
