Wind Hold

Really windy today, DRC was open early then the winds picked up more and everything went on wind hold.

Humid Day

Today was mostly cloudy, and very humid, it felt much colder than it should have.  Temps in the 20's.  Conditions today were pretty good, lots of flat light.  Snowmaking today on Haulback, Widowmaker and Flume.  Kine Pine should reopen saturday morning.

Hats off To The Amazing Snowmakers and Groomers

Back on the mountain today, temps were in the 20's, with only a little wind and flurries all day.  The Groomers and snowmakers have done an amazing job getting the mtn back into shape after the rain.  Kings Landing, Spillway, Sluice, Tote Road and Scoot were all amazing packed powder.  The Snowmakers are working hard to get Haulback reopen and Timberline trail should be open soon. $49 Lift tickets for Mainers all week.

Was going to ski today, but decided to give the groomers and snowmakers another day to work there magic, instead i went for a 2 mile run this morning, brr, then went for a hike to Reed Falls.  The trail is mostly frozen, I did break through a few times, but a great hike.

Rainy Day

Skied 3 runs today, Tote Road, Scoot and Kings Landing, conditions were variable but not too bad.  Pouring rain and Wind, we could see some snow out of the end of the storm. All lifts were shut down by 2 today because of wind and rain.

The Warm up

Temps warmed up into the 30's today, it was a mostly cloudy day and a bit of wind at the top of skyline.  The groomed trails were a little firm, but the ungroomed was super soft and sticky.  Bubblecuffer, and Winters Way were really good, nice soft bumps, Binder was good, a little rocky but not bad. Rain on the way for tomorrow with snow at the end of the storm, hopefully the mtn doesn't get beat up too bad.

Amazing Day

Today was an amazing day, Plenty of sun and temps in the high 20's.  Conditions have been incredible all week, Powder everywhere you go. Left sides of Ripsaw, Choker, Bubblecuffer and Winters Way are all drifted in.

Happy New Year

First day of the new year and first day I have skied since Christmas, although i only took 1 run.  5 below and a strong wind was a bit chilly.  Sunny with Clouds, it will warm up in the next few days. Double Bitter was amazing.  Timberline was on wind hold and snowmaking is set to resume soon.
