Open at 9 am. The temperature at 6:30 am is 24º, the forecast high is 43º and sunny. Today is our 15 day skiing.
The temperature and the snow have been cold so far this winter. Which makes for good, consistent skiing. There was not a base under to support the soft fluffy powder. So grooming has been tricky and we haven’t been able to groom as much as we like.
Ian finally got it to pack into a base, and now the weather is doing it’s warm up thing.
We are choosing to call this a base consolidation event. Hoping this is the January thaw come early.
Yesterday the snow started off soft and nice, quickly went to wet, slow, and sticky. By the afternoon the snow glazed over and became hard and fast.
This morning will be fast! The skiing will slow down as the temperature warms up. Spring conditions. AND the best to be said about today is it is better than tomorrow.
We will be closed on Friday. Picking up sticks on Saturday, and figure out how much snow we will need be to be skiing again. You know we will be skiing again as soon as we can.

Thank you for your snow advice earlier this week. I changed my plans to ski at Wild Wings this past Tuesday instead of waiting until tomorrow! The conditions were perfect that day! It has been such a happy December with all this snow!
