SNOW REPORT
Feel Good Friday!
Whoa, that was a little lame there for a while. With no skiing all week, we were a little cranky. Of course, we paste on the smiles and cheer when you call or email, but without glide – what is there? So, stop by, grab a ticket, or finally pick up your season pass (still available online and at the desk) and get some exercise!
Mr. Classic Ben is out grooming up at least 5k for us to ski on today. Probably more later today and into the weekend. Another .5 inches last night will fill in nicely and give us groomed skiing to the cabin and back with options for other trails too. Rock skis are recommended but you may not see too many. We are always on the side of caution here when mentioning trail surfaces etc. Just go have some fun out there!
We continue to make snow to connect the dots from the lodge to the woods and the plan is to keep that snow blowing through the weekend – so we will be “parking like a tuber” through Christmas Eve. Holy smokes!! Christmas Eve is coming quickly – grab some new gear, clothing, and gift cards with us in person or over the phone. We can help fill up the space under the tree.
On tap for today – SnowCoach is back, tubing is open, ski lessons are available, 30k of snowshoeing terrain, 5k or more of skiing, and Great Glen Outfitters is open. The only offering on the menu that isn’t open is fat biking.
Feeling good,
Nordic Nate
Almost forgot, my Friday joke! This one is for my brother Brett if he is reading from AK,
