North–South Ski Bowl, Ski resort in St. Joe National Forest, Idaho.
North-South Ski Bowl is a ski resort in St. Joe National Forest, spread across mountainous terrain in Idaho. The slopes descend from Dennis Mountain and offer varying difficulty levels for skiers of different abilities.
The Civilian Conservation Corps built this ski area in the late 1930s as part of the Works Progress Administration. Washington State College initially owned and operated the facility in the forest terrain.
Multiple ski teams from Washington State University and University of Idaho used these slopes for intercollegiate training and competitions throughout the years.
The location is accessible by road with parking available for winter visitors. Check current conditions before visiting, as access can vary depending on snow and weather.
The summit now hosts the Palouse Divide Lodge, which functions as a conference and retreat center. This transformation shows how the mountain space has been repurposed for a different use over time.
