Red River Ski & Summer Area

Thursday, October 22, 2026

Thursday is starting wet in Red River. Morning rain showers brought a temperature of 44 degrees, very damp air, and wet pavement on Main Street, and no weather alerts were in effect for the town this morning. The rain is expected to ease as the morning goes on, giving way to mostly cloudy skies and an afternoon high near 57 degrees, with southwest winds picking up and gusts possible later in the day. It is a warm-drinks, slow-morning kind of start, with better light for a stroll between showers by afternoon.

A cold week of first hard freezes gives way to a calm, sunny fall weekend in Red River, with highs in the 50s, museum hours, a Saturday fitness class, and Lego club at the library.

Hard freeze nights and sunny days settle over Red River, with highs in the low 50s, the ski area closed between seasons, and Opening Day projected for Thanksgiving, November 26.

With more than 60 years of family ownership, gentle groomers, and a chairlift a block off Main Street, Red River Ski Area makes learning to ski easy for beginners of all ages.
