 The snow has arrived 11" dense snow so far with much more predicted.

Due to the forecast of high winds and heavy snow our trails are not open today. We are going to spend the day preparing for tomorrow.  Lots of overhanging and down trees to deal with, before we can groom. Over all this snow will allow us to continue to offer superb spring conditions for quite a while. See you tomorrow.
