Snowmaking

Today we made snow on Lower Morse Liftline, Midway, Meadowlark, and Garden Path. Tonight the snowmakers will be headed to Black Snake, Snake Bite, the Practice Slope, and Mulcahy’s Link. Snowmaking will continue throughout the day on Black Snake from the pine tree start (top of Harvey’s) down, so make sure you have your goggles.

Lifts and Trails

Tomorrow we plan to have top to bottom skiing and riding on all 3 mountains with 6 lifts operating. We have 27 trails open with terrain for all ability levels. Midway and Meadowlark will be open tomorrow. 26 trails will be groomed for tomorrow, that’s a grand total of 96 acres of freshly groomed terrain. Surface conditions are variable and machine groomed with average base depths of 12 to 36 inches.
