7/17 Update
We are delighted by the outpouring of financial support for the new lodge and rental shop renovation. We want to thank everyone for the massive surge from $550,000 to $750,000 and the unbelievable community response to our $50k challenge gift, which itself brought in over $65,000 from our Loup community. Okanogan Omak Rotary, ski patrol, ski school, and so many others made the start of construction happen.
We’re now in the 4th quarter of the campaign- $250,00 to go by October 1! You can mail a check to PO Box 1187 Twisp, WA 98856 or donate on-line here. https://skitheloup.com/the-next-50-campaign
Help us build the new Loup Lodge!
GoFundMe Community Challenge
Fifty years ago the Wolf Den Lodge was built to get people out of the elements, and give them a place to have a meal and warm up before the next run. The time has come to replace the Lodge, and refresh the school, rental, and repair facilities, too.
Every dollar counts and moves us closer to our goal of a new Lodge for Winter 2020/21. Please click the GoFundMe button and support the Loup with your “Community Challenge” donation.

Giving Youth a Lift For the Future
The Loup ski area is operated by the Loup Loup Ski Education Foundation and is one of only a small handful of nonprofit-run ski areas in the country.
With a small dedicated staff and a strong cadre of volunteers, the Loup sets an example of community involvement as a shared value for the region’s youth.

Bear Mountain Luge Experience
Loup Loup was excited to introduce Luge Sledding to the Northwest last season and is indeed the very first area in the Western U.S. to offer Luge Sledding.
Snowcat service to the Upper Bear Mountain trail system provides access for Luge sledders, featuring a ride up of 5 km and more than 1200’ of elevation gain. The Bear Mountain trails are accessible from the Loup Loup parking lot, allowing for Luge sledders to ride more than 12 km of groomed trails.
Visit the Bear Mountain Luge Experience page for details.
Sledding for grown-ups | The Seattle Times
You’ve seen it during the Winter Olympics, but did you know that recreational luge sledding is a thing? With a new run at the Methow Valley’s Loup Loup Ski Bowl, writer Jeff Layton put it to the test. The result? A real-life game of Mario Kart that’s surprisingly kid-friendly.
