Winter's Long Awaited Return

Welcome to The Weekend Update

Happy Valentine's Day & President's Day! After a long hiatus, winter returned this week, dropping a few inches of much-needed freshies across the mountain. This weekend looks to start with a mix of sun and clouds, with our next storm system just on the heels by Sunday evening or Monday! Keep doing those snow dances. Next week looks quite wintry!

Make a Plan!

Stay tuned this weekend for potential weather updates. We send NO GO messages by 6:30 am. Sign up for your volunteer role before you head up the mountain, and make a plan for a meeting location with your kids in advance!

Read below for everything happening this President's Day weekend!
