10am Update: This morning is kicking off to be a nice day for skiing and riding! Cloud cover today and the consistently cold temperatures have created perfect conditions for our groomed runs. More terrain has opened today and after riding Chair 3, it is clear the grooming team has worked their magic yet again. While the cold temperatures may prompt an extra layer or a hot chocolate break, look for the open run conditions to be consistent throughout the day. Early season conditions will exist. Low snow and difficult conditions are present. Please stay on open runs and respect all rope lines/trail closures as they are there for your safety. Yet another crisp and clear December morning this Sunday. Temperatures have stayed consistently cold throughout yesterday and into last night so the snow will be skiing and riding nicely today, just remember an extra layer or two to keep warm. Groomed surfaces will provide the most consistent turns, but if you choose to explore off piste terrain, please use caution as early season conditions do still exist.

10am Update: Mother Nature is delivering us a stunning winter day, complete with clear skies and views of the valley below. A trace of super lightweight snow overnight has consolidated in pockets on the PM groom, providing some fantastic turns for this early in the season. Those groomed runs should be riding great all day today! If you are feeling adventurous and decided to leave groomed trails, use caution as those early season conditions are still present just under the new snowfall. Grab that extra layer for the chilly times between turns and come experience the mountain! What a beautiful morning it is shaping up to be to kick off our first weekend in December! There are patches of stars out above the slopes and we have received a trace of light snow overnight.

The groomed runs were excellent this morning, and the snow feels great under the board. Make sure to layer up as it is chilly up top, especially if your body is not acclimated to winter weather yet like this guy. It should be a good day to cruise the mountain. If you choose to adventure off-piste, please use caution as pre-season conditions still exist. It's shaping up to be another great day on the mountain. The temps were cold, and the wind was mild last night, meaning the AM groomed runs should be riding fantastic this morning. The 13" we've had over the last 48 hours has started to fill in the mountain and the open runs have been riding great. Make sure to layer up today, as we are looking at a high of 18 degrees at the base. I expect the runs to hold up well all day with the cold temps, as they were still riding really good late afternoon yesterday. If you are going to adventure off-piste, use caution, as low snow and early-season condition still exist. Early season conditions will exist. Low snow and difficult conditions are present. Please stay on open runs and respect all rope lines/trail closures as they are there for your safety.

10 AM Update: Wow, those were some great early-season pow turns, just enough to get you excited but not too much to wear you out. You should be able to find good turns all day, but be mindful of going off-piste as early season conditions still apply. Mother Nature is welcoming us to winter! We received 3" up top last night and 12" in the past 24 hours so look for the turns this morning to be soft and fun. The open runs should be riding great this AM but be careful venturing too far off piste as the new snow is extremely light and fluffy. Early season conditions will exist. Low snow and difficult conditions are present. Please stay on open runs and respect all rope lines/trail closures as they are there for your safety.
