LATEST TRAIL CONDITIONS
THU, APR 2
Forbush Corner: Skied Forbush with Yvon this morning, out through the Pines loop and back to Crybaby, Roller Coaster and Badlands. Almost 100% coverage, surface pretty decent, fast and fun. The rain started as we finished up. Still lots of snow on the east side.
WED, APR 1
Forbush Corner: It’s been a great season! We’ve been able to ski our entire system since the Saturday after Thanksgiving. Four months of Pines Loop was certainly a treat. The current forecast does not give us much hope for any more grooming this season. If we do groom anything we will let you know! Thank you for a wonderful season.
