Incredible conditions! Tall pines trail is especially beautiful, with its massive red and white pines. Enjoy!

The conditions are awesome! We received 4-5 inches of snow in the last 24 hours. The grooming team has been hard at work since before dawn this morning packing, grooming, and setting classic tracks on all the trails. There is 18-24″ of snow in the woods, and 5-7″ of snow packed on the trails. Join us for great skiing and a yummy mac ‘n cheese lunch special all weekend long!
