December 27, 2018 (BOISE, ID)– Bogus Basin has good news for local skiers and snowboarders interested in taking public transportation to the mountain. The nonprofit recreation area announced today that pubic bus service will resume on Monday, December 31st. Busses will run daily through Sunday, January 6th (the end of the winter holiday break), and then weekends and holidays only for the remainder of the season.
Local commuters were disappointed to learn at the beginning of the season that bus service to Bogus Basin had been discontinued. Officials at the area have been working to find a new partner to shuttle guests to the mountain on weekends and holidays. “Accessibility is a key part of our nonprofit mission, so we were determined to find an affordable solution quickly for our guests,” said General Manager, Brad Wilson. “We are pleased to resume this service, and we encourage people to take advantage to ensure that it continues.”
Bus tickets to Bogus Basin– both round trip and one way– will cost $10, cash only. Passengers will pay at the time they board the bus. The bus route has changed, and will include three stops at new locations. Although one trip up and down the mountain per day is planned for now, additional trips may be added if ridership warrants.
