Saturday’s Opening Day was a delight! While we had extremely limited terrain open, the people who came had a fantastic time, with lots of families and kids skiing, snowboarding and having a lot of fun.

It was terrific to see all the smiling faces. We also enjoyed seeing our longtime pass holders out supporting us and enjoying a perfect bluebird day. It was encouraging for our staff to get back to what we are trained to do — provide the freedom to ski! We’re watching the weather and anticipating this storm system to dump so we can open more of the mountain. C’mon Mother Nature! Slopes are clear, grooming is underway, and we just need some more snow on our usual challenging spots on the mountain. THINK SNOW!
