This morning we have light snow falling sideways in the wind, and we have received at least 2 inches of new snow overnight and 4 inches in the past 24 hours. This is likely a conservative estimate for the time being, but you will find some big drifts out on the hill today, along with large areas of wind scour. Current temperatures at 6am range from -6 degrees at the top of the FourRunner Quad to 3 degrees in the base area.
Today’s forecast calls for continued snow showers and gusty winds. Additional accumulations of 1 – 3 inches are possible today. High temperatures will struggle to reach 0 degrees at the summit and the upper single digits in the base area. Grab your warmest gear if you plan to join us, as wind chills up high could be as low as -35 degrees.

FOUNDERS CUP SKI RACE 1/25
|
|
|
Please join us for this year’s Founders Cup Ski Race and be a part of the action on Saturday, January 25th. No race experience is required to be a part of this fun and approachable day of camaraderie and competition.
Teams can be comprised of members and invited guests; sign up as an individual, couple, family or form your own full team of up to 8 people. Racers who sign up individually, as well as smaller sized groups, will be assisted in forming full teams by Club staff. See Dan Ruane with any questions. We will only count the best 4 (handicapped) times to calculate your team score so it is a very low pressure format- this is about fun! Team times will be adjusted and handicaps are generated by age, gender and on snow discipline as skiers, snowboarders and telemark skiers are all welcome.
All participants are automatically enrolled in the individual division so that we can crown the fastest racers overall by gender, age and discipline. The individual divisions will not be handicapped.
The entry fee of $50 for everyone over 13 and $35 for all participants under 14 will include lunch, a commemorative gift, ski race with practice runs, Après race treats, live music and awards.
