Tomorrow we plan to have top to bottom skiing and riding on all 3 mountains with 4 lifts operating. We have 42 trails open with terrain for all ability levels. 39 trails will be groomed for tomorrow, that’s 135 acres of freshly groomed terrain. Tomorrow’s forecast is calling for partly sunny skies early then a chance of an afternoon snow shower or flurries with a high of 33 degrees.

Will they make it smooth or will there be a jump?  They might even make both; who knows. I do know that it will be very exciting, entertaining, and a ton of fun!
