Ski Trail Report

Trails are now closed for skiing and fat biking. Although there are skiable segments, back to back days near 50 degrees has taken its toll on the trails and we are closing out of caution. Hard to believe how fast conditions changed but it is the third week of March and anything can happen!

It’s been a great week of skiing and awesome to see so many people out to enjoy these special late season conditions that were some of the best of the year! Thank you for the support! We appreciate it very much. The trails will open again once the frost is out. Typically mid to late April.
