Tutu Tuesday
Rockin’ Ron for Hugh. 100% of our trails are open! Today’s forecast is sunny to partly sunny skies with temps of 34-47 degrees. So, it will be a great day for some spring skiing and riding, if you’re wearing a tutu, a kilt, or just unadorned snow pants.

You could not ask for a nicer day, ok maybe tomorrow. Today was amazing with the beautiful sunny skies and the warmer spring air. There wasn’t a cloud in the sky and the views were fantastic. I want to thank our groomers for the wonderful job that they have been doing. Upper and Lower Drifter were very nice today. The natural snow trails are also in great shape. All of Madonna Liftline was open today. I skied it top to bottom and had a blast! When it comes to challenging trails, Madonna Liftline top to bottom, a.k.a. shack to shack, is right up there.
The wonderful weather continues tomorrow with sunny skies and temperatures between 35 and 47 degrees. Spring

Once again the forecast called for partly to mostly cloudy skies and the sun decided to take over. It was truly a gorgeous day with great conditions and comfortable temperatures. The Smuggs Friendly Freeride Competition was a blast to watch. It was snowboarders and skiers taking on Madonna Liftline from mid-station down. This section has a bunch of cool features and a mean double fall line!

The forecast called for cloudy skies, but the sun decided to make an appearance. I got to take a couple runs with my wife and all 3 kids this afternoon on Madonna. We had a great time on Upper Chilcoot, Lower Catwalk, Red Fox Glades, and Three Mountain Glades. The snow in the trees was wonderful. We all also enjoyed the Free Family Fun Race on Lower Madonna Liftline. The kids made sure that we always ended our run on Lower Madonna Liftline, so that they could do the race again.
