After the warm temps, heavy rain and quick freeze we are out accessing our trail network. The good news is we expect to still have some skiing. The best bet is to call around noon for an update. Even if there is enough snow coverage left it will take extensive grooming before it is ready for skiers. Stay tuned. Thank you for your patience.
