Anthony Lakes is a ski area in the northwest United States, located in northeastern Oregon in the Wallowa–Whitman National Forest west of North Powder. Near the cities of La Grande and Baker City, the resort has one triple chairlift and a vertical drop of 900 feet (274 m). Its summit elevation is 8,000 feet (2,438 m) above sea level and the terrain is mostly of an intermediate and expert level.
The resort also offers snowcat skiing on nearby peaks, and includes a boardercross course as well as a well maintained cross-country (Nordic) ski trails complete with its own Nordic center building. Several backcountry skiing opportunities exist in the nearby area, including Angell Basin.[1]
