Good Morning from The Highlands Team!

Today’s Download:
Good morning! Today is a great day to ride on the warmest lift in the Midwest, so take a heated seat on C6, and get your powder runs in. There is plenty of powder left from yesterday’s snow system. The winds will be stiff and brisk so expect drifted areas. Lifts are spinning from 9:00 AM to 4:30 PM. Thanks for enjoying winter with us.

Roads and sidewalks are snow covered, but our resort road commission staff are out plowing, sanding and salting, so please, take it slow and be safe. Have a great weekend friends!

SNOWMAKING-GROOMING UPDATE
Thank a snowmaker! As of now, we are well covered, and there is no need to make snow, but thanks to them and our grooming team, working 24/7, conditions could not get much better.
