Before you go
The ski road is about 9 miles from exit 6 and climbs fast, so it can be snowy when Ashland is just wet. An Oregon Sno-Park permit is required to park ($4/day or $25/season). I-5 Siskiyou chain status.
Oregon works differently from California: ODOT posts “carry chains or traction tires” all winter as a standing advisory. It only matters when signs say chains are required, sometimes with traction tires allowed on vehicles under 10,000 lbs. Oregon, California, Washington and Nevada chain laws · How to put on chains.
