Good Morning,

Winter isn’t over yet! After yesterday’s warm spring day, it’s back to winter today. We are under a winter weather advisory for up to 5 inches of fresh snow! Our grooming team has been working all night to prepare the snow surface for riding today.
We are entering our last week of operation, so get your turns in before we close for the season on Sunday, March 23rd.

NOTE: Today is your last day to ride our newest lift, Interconnect, as we will be closing the North Peak area after today for the season.

AMYS PARK TAKEOVER: Our talented terrain team transformed Amy’s run from top to bottom into a terrain park, this is something we have never done. We have 11 jibs, 3 snow features and 3 big jumps, this will be something to see and ride! The Amy’s takeover will be set up from today through Sunday, March 23rd.

A few reminders:
Snowsports school is open, with Private Lessons available daily through March 23rd.

The Adventure Center is available for extra fun, with zipline, sno-go, and our equestrian center.

The Nordic Center: CLOSED. Thanks for a great XC season.

Here is what you can expect today:
