Daily Recommended Serving

Rockin’ Ron for Hugh. Our groomers will be busy overnight, preparing 34 trails/132 acres for tomorrow – including Upper FIS, Smugglers’ Alley, and Log Jam. We plan to have 6 lifts operating including Madonna I and Morse Highlands. This should help you get your daily on-hill experience.

What constitutes a full day of skiing/riding? My friend RoML says 3 runs is his daily recommended serving. I’ve also heard 4 runs. What is your definition of a day on the slopes?

RoML bringing out the blue. His daily recommended serving for a day of skiing is 3 runs.
