Eagle Point Resort Provides Update Following Cottonwood Fire June 29th, 2026

Today, for the first time since the Cottonwood Fire reached Eagle Point Resort, we were able to return and begin seeing the impact firsthand. We wanted to share an initial update with our community.

First and foremost, our hearts are with everyone impacted by this fire. While it’s heartbreaking to see the damage, we are incredibly grateful that everyone was evacuated safely and that no lives were lost at the resort.

We also extend our deepest thanks to the firefighters, first responders, and members of the community who worked tirelessly to protect lives and property. Your dedication and bravery made a meaningful difference.

While these initial observations only reflect part of the picture, and the full extent of the damage is still being evaluated, here is what we know so far.

Damaged Areas and Property

• Approximately 300 of the resort’s 600 acres of ski terrain were impacted on the south side of the mountain, primarily along Tushar Ridge (“The Steeps”).
• Canyonside Lodge, one of the resort’s two day lodges, along with more than 100 condominiums and 30 cabins, were lost in the fire.
• Four of the resort’s five chairlifts sustained damage. The full extent is still being determined.
• The Warming Station on Tushar Ridge was destroyed.
• Additional losses include:
  • 5 snowmobiles
  • 3 vehicles
  • 3 storage containers containing tools

Areas and Infrastructure That Remain Intact

• Skyline Lodge, the resort’s main on-mountain facility
• Monarch Lift on the north side of the resort and the surrounding terrain
• Skyline terrain, which experienced minimal impact
• Aspen Crest subdivision, which is mostly intact with minimal tree damage
• Snowmaking pond and equipment
• Cell phone and internet towers

Looking Ahead

This is still an ongoing process. Our team has just begun assessing the property, and it will take time to fully understand the scope of the damage.

We ask for your patience as we continue gathering accurate information and providing updates.

To everyone who has reached out with support, offered assistance, and kept our team, first responders, and our community in your thoughts—thank you. Your kindness means more than we can express.
