No Lift Service Monday to Thursday This Week - Lift service resumes Friday, Dec 1 to Sunday, Dec 3 9am to 4pm

Wednesday: Holy canoli, it. just. won't. stop. With the winds pushing it around a bit, we're going with another 6-10" (base to summit) as of this early morning report in the last 24 hours which brings us to over two feet at the summit since Sunday night!!!!

This week has been just kind of ridiculous at this point with the 12-15" that we woke up to on Monday morning as well. Well, we have our work cut out for us here obviously. If you need us, we'll be shoveling and blowing snow across the resort and doing our best to expand terrain as best we can for lift service this Friday to Sunday from 9am to 4pm. Stay tuned for more details as we're able to share, but should have a good beat on it by tomorrow mid afternoon if not sooner. Appreciate your patience. Rest assured, we're super excited, too!

No lift service today, but we've gone ahead and opened the Wilderness Designated Uphill Route is OPEN and it. will. be. good. up there today!

Friendly reminders regarding uphill:
Intermediate to advanced skiers and riders only. It's early season. Please beware of thin cover and unmarked hazards. Use good judgement and stay within yoru limits.
- You must have a valid ticket or pass. Buy NBU (Nordic/backcountry/uphill) Tickets HERE. Midweek NBU tickets are just $20.

- Sorry, no dogs!

This snow plus tomorrow's return of colder temps have our Mountain Operations (and snowmaking) team doing the happy dance as we look to expand terrain heading into next weekend's lift service, which will be Friday to Sunday from 9am to 4pm. Stay tuned later in the week to see what we have for you, but as of now, our plan is to continue to focus on terrain from mid mountain down with the goal of adding Snowflake Lift, Hide Away Progression (Terrain) Park and 3-5x the trails of opening weekend! Stay tuned right here and we'll keep you posted on progress as the week unfolds.

Lift tickets for this coming weekend currently start from just $39 and ALL SEASON PASS TYPES valid for all hours/days of lift service during the early season lift operations schedule (through Sunday, December 17). Regular season lift schedule (with night skiing & riding under LED lights 5 nights/week until 10pm) begins Monday, December 18.
