Goofy weather huh......well we met this morning, kicked the snow, checked six different forecasts and made the tough decision.....
We have decided just moments ago to NOT open Wednesday, February 11 for our scheduled groups and at night for open skiing and riding either..........AND.........NOT open Thursday, February 12 for our scheduled groups and that night as well......
You gotta trust us on this.... it will be good for the long run......
What this will do is keep the snow intact.......we still have good snow cover but if we get people on it and/or get our groomer on it....the melting will be more severe.......AND ......we DO plan on making snow Wednesday night and again Thursday night.......even if we can only run 25%......we will spend the effort to get more fresh white on the trails........
Thursday night we will push a little snow to cover the grass on the drop zone where all the riders check speed and one little melt thru on Central Park.
Then we also plan on making MORE SNOW Friday night, Saturday night and Sunday night with the temps predicted to be several degrees colder......and if that's what actually happens with colder temps, we will be able to open more jets, increase the volume of snow made and move the guns often to get good FRESH SNOW coverage over a lot of the trails.
That should give us GREAT CONDITIONS.......for our groups on Friday, February 13 and Friday night-----and this weekend Saturday, Sunday and yes Monday (open 10 to 6 for Presidents Day Holiday).
Hate to do it but we would rather sacrafice a Wednesday and Thursday to have AWESOME SNOW for the four day weekend..
So even after .15 inches of rain yesterday, in excess of 96 straight hours of above freezing temps, three of the last four days in excess of 50 degrees......we are going to give YOU GREAT skiing, riding and tubing this weekend....
thanks for your support.....
Enjoy Winter....

Hey when are you guys going to have your annual pond skim this year?
Hey Random Comment here. Could you get some pics of the forty foot rail it sounds pretty SICK!!!!!! so just wanted to put that out there
Hey snowboarderjake, we haven't set a specific date yet but first, YES we are planning on the third annual pond skim; second it has always been on a Sunday and finally, it is in March. Hope it isn't quite as cold as last year. The first year temps and weather was awesome...last year was a bit cold...as it was snowing during the skim. We'll keep you informed on our blog when we set the date for the Third Annual Spring Splash.
With regard to the forty foot rail, I'll try to get a pic on the blog tomorrow for you. Yep, it's a ride......not that I would know personally...but rather what I have seen and been told.
forty footer.....see fridays blog..thanks
