Mountain Operations Manager Mike McAdoo and the crew from the Village Lift putting the finishing touches on the loading ramp
Lifts and Trails
Today we plan to have top to bottom skiing and riding on all 3 mountains with 5 lifts operating, Madonna I Lift, VillageLift, Sterling Lift, Mogul Mouse’s Magic Lift, and Sir Henry’s Glider. 23 trails have been groomed for today, including Garden Path, Black Snake, and Upper Chilcoot for a grand total of 102 acres of freshly groomed terrain. Some trails are closed due to overnight temperature changes. Snow in the forecast will allow more terrain to open in the near future. Today we have 54 trails open with terrain for all ability levels. Surface conditions are variable and machine groomed with average base depths of 18 to 48 inches.
Weather
Currently it is foggy and 31 degrees at the summit of Sterling with winds of 10 to 15 mph. Today ‘s forecast is calling for cloudy skies with increasing sunshine later in the day and temperatures between 31 and 39 degrees. There is snow in the forecast for Sunday night into Monday with a couple inches of accumulation possible. The forecast is calling for colder temperatures at the beginning of this week and we plan to resume snowmaking at that time.
