Anthony Lakes Mountain Resort Ski Trail Map - Layered Wood Wall Art
by Mountaincut
Oregon's highest, most lovable powder secret, now on your wall. Mountaincut's Anthony Lakes Ski Trail Map is a layered wooden wall art piece featuring hand-traced ski trails expertly laser cut from premium birch and/or walnut plywood, a handcrafted tribute to the down-home Elkhorn Mountains ski area where champagne powder, glacially sculpted peaks, and zero lift lines come together.
The Highest Base in Oregon, Captured in Wood
Tucked high in the Elkhorn Range of the Blue Mountains in the Wallowa-Whitman National Forest of northeastern Oregon, west of North Powder and near Baker City and La Grande, Anthony Lakes Mountain Resort has been welcoming skiers since the early 1930s, when the Civilian Conservation Corps first developed the area. At a base elevation of 7,100 feet, it is the highest base of any ski area in Oregon, and that altitude pays off in the form of dry, light, champagne powder that many consider the best in the Northwest. From that lofty base, the mountain rises to a summit of 8,000 feet, delivering a 900-foot vertical drop across roughly 1,100 acres of skiable terrain. Anthony Lakes offers 21 runs served by a classic triple chairlift, a rope tow, and a magic carpet, and relies entirely on Mother Nature, with no snowmaking, averaging around 250 to 300 inches of snow each season. Life Magazine famously called it "the most lovable ski area in America" back in 1969, and not much has changed since. This handcrafted map captures every run, chute, and secret tree stash in beautiful layered wood relief.
Every Run, Every Chute, Every Memory
Anthony Lakes favors adventurous skiers, with terrain that breaks down to roughly 20% beginner, 38% intermediate, and 42% expert. Beginners have a welcoming dedicated learning area with gentle slopes and a magic carpet, but the mountain's soul lives in its expert terrain. Fan favorites like Wildcat, Powder Bowl, and Rock Garden deliver a mix of challenging pitches and breathtaking scenery, with a boulder field on Schuss Alley for pillow hops, chutes on Rock Garden, a natural rock quarterpipe, small cliffs, and countless secret runs stashed in the trees. A great hiking experience out Avalanche opens up even more terrain for those willing to earn it, and the resort is home to some of the best cat skiing in the area on the backside. Beyond the alpine trails, Anthony Lakes is renowned for its Nordic skiing, with over 18 miles of groomed and track-set cross-country and snowshoe trails ranging from green to black diamond, starting at the Nordic Outpost. A charming day lodge with a restaurant and lounge, a rare "Own The Mountain" program that lets groups rent the entire hill on non-operating Mondays, and a genuine hometown-hill friendliness make Anthony Lakes unlike anywhere else. Best of all, you will almost never wait in a lift line.
Exceptional Craftsmanship, Made in the USA
All Mountaincut wooden trail maps are precision laser cut and etched, hand-stained, and finished in the United States using birch and/or walnut plywood. The two-layer construction creates a rich, dimensional look where the mountain's peaks, chutes, and trail network stand out in beautiful relief. Hanging hardware comes preinstalled, so your new trail map will be on display in minutes.
Because each piece is crafted from real wood, no two maps are exactly alike, with natural variations in the grain and stain giving every piece its own character, just like a champagne powder morning high in the Elkhorns.
