Opening Day Pushed up to Dec. 9

Good news skiers and riders! We had good snowmaking production over the weekend and were also aided by Mother Nature with some natural snow. In lieu of this, we have pushed Opening Day up by one day and will open for the season Friday, December 9. Lifts will run from 10am - 4pm with no night skiing.

While we have had two feet of snow in the past week, keep in mind that the snow fell on warm and wet ground. Water bars are still flowing and there are still plenty of thin spots. Our snowmakers are currently on a short break due to warm temperatures but will get back at it as soon as temps drop again. The mountain ops team is constantly assessing conditions and we'll have a better idea of what lifts and trails we can open by Thursday. As always, head over to the snow report for the most up to date info. See you Friday!
