Preview: Reopening on 12/12!

Winter is staring us in the face, and we’re ready to meet it head-on after a fantastic start to the season! We’re reopening tomorrow (Thursday 12/12) and plan to be open every day through March 30, conditions permitting. The next few days look promising, with chances of snow on Thursday, Friday, and Saturday; the best odds for significant powder are currently on Friday night. While we expect an awesome December weekend with a majority of terrain open, please continue to use caution – thin cover, obstacles, and active snowmaking operations will exist.

Terrain**

Early season conditions exist. Low coverage in places. Please stay on open runs and respect all rope lines/trail closures as they are there for your safety.

That being said, we have a great terrain selection due to our near-record November snowfall. A majority of lift-serviced runs will be open, and the Mountain Ops team has been hard at work to get your favorite groomers in prime condition. For a full grooming report, click here.
