Closed, 5º, at 8am. Cold with 4 inches of snow on the ground.

The snow fell, but the temperature warmed up overnight on Saturday for a while, and some of the precipitation was sleet or freezing rain.

But we now have 4 inches of snow on the ground. Ian has been packing it out and it is turning into an ok base.

Some of the trails look like the picture above and some look like below. More snow, all we need is more snow. And if it would stay cold and not melt again, well that would be wonderful too.

Closed, 22º, 5 inches of new snow.

Unfortunately we had no base left. Ian is on a snow machine, pulling a roller. The picture shows how every little hump and bump show through.

It turned out to be not enough snow to open, keep doing the snow dance!

Closed, 30º at 10:00am, not snowing yet. But you can feel it in the air. The photo above is from this morning. We are down to bare ground.

The plan is to be closed on Sunday. Get the base packed and let it harden up. NO SKIING ON SUNDAY!!! for anyone.

We plan to open on Monday morning, God willing and the creek don’t rise. I will post again with updates.

And the early season pass offer ends on the 20th. Here is the link. And below is the poster.

Closed, 38º, and pretty much bare ground. This picture is from a couple days ago. Any white you see in this photo is gone.

But, the forecast sounds promising. 6 to 8 inches Saturday and Saturday night.

We will not be open on Sunday. The snow will have to harden up. The base is gone, so no skiing on Sunday. Ian will have to pack it down. The snow will need to harden up, and then you can ski on it. Stay tuned. I will post late Saturday and again Sunday.

The good news, beside the supply chain opening up for snow, the temperatures are suppose to be cold. Yeah!!!!!!!!!!!

I am unhappy with warm weather, and I am really unhappy with this early, extra mud season. Below was the view from my “office” on Tuesday, the 14th. I do love my job!
