A herculean effort by the snow-making team has revitalized the trails!

Thanks to the valiant efforts of our snow making and grooming teams, the trails are in much better shape today! We moved a bunch of snow around at the trailhead and throughout some of the main network and the corduroy is looking and feeling good! Skiers yesterday reported fun conditions even with the little glaze. We were able to chew up Trappers cabin, Adventure, and Rolling hills, and all three of those trails are in pretty darn good shape. Rolling hills is fast! Manitou did not get touched and is only recommended to advanced skiers who know how to ski through icy patches. Tall pines is closed, and Wild Turkey has a few bare spots, but other than that we’re quite pleased with how the trails look! No tracks, but fresh corduroy and a nice bit of sunshine are making today look pretty darn nice!

Live music in the day lodge today from 1-3pm!
