Description · generated

Snow Creek is a small ski area in Platte County, Missouri, on the bluffs above the Missouri River in the Kansas City region. It has 14 runs served by 5 lifts across 25 skiable acres, with 300 feet of vertical between a 800-foot base and a 1,100-foot summit. Natural snowfall is limited at this latitude, so the mountain relies on snowmaking, which can cover all of its terrain when temperatures stay below freezing. Terrain runs from beginner to expert trails, and a separate tubing area operates alongside the ski slopes. It is one of two ski resorts in Missouri and is included on the Epic Pass.
