TODAY
Jan 28, 2012: It has been an interesting weather day indeed! White stuff actually fell from the sky overnight as we picked up 2"-4" of wet, sand-like snow. We then saw a bit of sleet/sneet then a period of flat out rain and forecasts are calling for a changeover to snow overnight. All in all a solid net gain in terms of base. The skiing today was remarkably good with surfaces varying by elevation. Some crustiness at the upper elevations, and some "surfy" skiing further down. With a little luck we should have some real nice skiing for you this weekend. Frankly this meteorological episode is exactly what we needed; a glop that stuck to everything providing us a nice base to build on. We kept skiers off of the steeper terrain today which should provide for a nice, un-rutted skiing surface for the weekend. Single Chair Weather Bloggist, Josh Fox, is cautiously optimistic for going forward, lets all hope that he's right!
For the weekend we plan to have nearly 100% of our legendary terrain open for skiing serviced by the Single Chair, Sunnyside Double and Practice Slope lifts from 8:30 AM - 4 PM and Birdland & the Callie's Corner Handle Tow will run from 10 AM - 3:30 PM. Stay tuned for exact trail counts in the morning.
- On Saturday enjoy the musical stylings of ManBando in the pub for apres ski.
- Tuesday, January 31st is Roll Back the Clock Day, with the unbeatable ticket prices of only $3.50! The Starline Rhythm Boys will also be playing in the pub.
