We plan to open more terrain tomorrow and Saturday!
Tomorrow we plan to have 3 lifts operating, Sterling Lift, Sir Henry’s Wonder Carpet, and Mogul Mouse’s Magic Lift to the top. Garden Path will be open tomorrow. We now have 11 trails open with terrain for all ability levels. All 11 trails will be groomed for tomorrow. That’s a grand total of 46 acres of freshly groomed terrain. Surface conditions are machine groomed and variable with average base depths of 12 to 48 inches. Tonight we plan to make snow on Midway, Meadowlark, Practice Slope, and Birch Run. Currently it is cloudy and 12 degrees at the summit of Sterling with winds of 5 to 10 mph. Tomorrow’s forecast is calling for partly sunny skies with a high of 35 degrees.
On Saturday we plan to have 4 lifts operating, Sterling Lift, Sir Henry’s Wonder Carpet, Madonna II Lift, and Mogul Mouse’s Magic Lift to the top. We plan to open Midway and Meadowlark on Saturday. The Madonna II Lift will allow you to access Mulcahy’s Link and Lower Madonna Liftline.
