New Snow Opens More Terrain for the Holidays!



New Snow Opens More Terrain for the Holidays!

After a foot of fresh snow this week not only are the conditions great, but we were able to open more terrain as well! Over 10" fell on Sunday night giving us what we needed to open most of the runs off Chair 6 as well as Firecut off Chair 2. Check out some of the photos to the left that were taken earlier this week and featured in local newspapers and television stations. There is still plenty of more terrain to open, so keep thinking snow!

The snow has been falling steadily all day today, Thursday the 17th, and there might even be a chance for some more this weekend. Keep an eye on the weather forecast and if you haven't already, be sure to sign up for our custom snow reports and be the first to know just how much we get.

More Snow in the Forecast!

More Snow in the Forecast for the Weekend!
After a cold spell this week it looks as if the temperatures are going to return to a normal level for this time of year and may even bring some new snow this weekend! It is still a little early to tell how much we might get, but keep an eye on the weather forecast . If you haven't already, be sure to sign up for our custom snow reports and be the first to know just how much we get.

Not only is there a chance for snow in the forecast, but we have also been able to open a couple more runs in the past week. Zig-Zag at The Valley opened this past week as did Upper Richards off Chair 1 at the Basin. More runs will be opening as the snow starts to fall, so keep those fingers crossed!
