Open 9:30am-9:30pm

Expect variable ski conditions today with machine groomed corduroy in the morning giving way to a hard packed, firm, durable snow surface underneath. Conditions could change run to run as cloud cover gives way to burst of sunshine. Mild winter temps return this week, the mild temps will offer a great time to learn. If you choose to ski this week, expect some sunshine, wide open hills and short lift lines.
