Forecasts are calling for freezing rain going over to rain showers this morning & back over to snow later this afternoon. We'll keep the website & snow phone updated. (P.S.--There's snow in the forecast for Friday night/Saturday.) We concentrated grooming on novice & intermediate terrain, plus Centerline & Hayride--55 trails in all; we also groomed 2 terrain parks & the halfpipe."
Amazing report contrast to Loon (below). Fresh? what Fresh? Now who do you think they're kidding?

"DUE TO HIGH WINDS, WE WILL HAVE A DELAYED OPENING OF 10 a.m. this morning. March came in like a lion, dumping a FOOT of fresh snow over the weekend, which brings snow totals for the past week to over 2 FEET! Here's the snow tally: more than 6 FEET in February and almost 17 FEET, season to date. 100% of trails are open, plus 5 terrain parks, the minipipe and the superpipe -- 22 miles and 300 acres of incredible skiing & riding! "
