My 7.5 year old granddaughter told her mom last week. She is softer when she is tired. And it is harder not to cry. So she cries more when she is too tired. Don’t we all.

I’ve been skiing here since before I can remember. As a kid I took this place for granted, but am now becoming (more) grateful. So much work gets put into these trails and it shows. It’s the end of March and the skiing is still… Read more “I’ve been skiing here since”
I love that run on Upper Jay! The tracks are in the perfect place. Thank you Ian! I was once a groomer and I want to point out that setting track with the Tidd Tech is a very deliberate affair. If you want to stop… Read more “Groomer to Groomer”
