With the opening day less than a week away, things are finally starting to take shape – of course this last 12” of snowfall has certainly contributed greatly to providing a skiable surface for ALL abilities to enjoy.
We will open on the 20th with all services available, including the village shuttle bus (check web site for updated schedules), Café, Espresso, Snow Sports, Rental Shop, Reba Sports, Performance/Demo Center, Tickets/Passes and of course the MONTY WOLF SALOON!.
As for lifts and trails – Cub/Super Cub, Koala and Kuma are in the bag serving the upper mtn & bowl. The backside/Polar/Pooh are somewhat iffy because of the more westerly exposure there are many open ditches with running water and several rock gardens in the narrows and pinch points. We’re working with the available snow but it definitely needs one more storm and a few more nights of cold temps for snowmaking to connect the dots.
With opening day being free for all, (be sure you pick up a free ticket at the ticket office) it could turn out to be very, very busy, so are working to have as much open as we can, as fast as we can, but want to do it in a safe, reasonable and prudent manner. If you intend to attend that day you may consider arriving early, get your turns in, perhaps visit with Melissa and then escape before it gets too crowded. After all its only day 1!! – GM
6 days and counting

Hi Greg, I’m not sure about which camera you are talking about, we only have two cameras – one attached to the mid mountain lodge and one at the top of the Polar Express. I’ve only been here since 2005 and in that time I am not aware of ever having a web cam down in Griz or Snow Valley. Good news – coming in January we will be installing an HD camera which should be very cool, bad news is that it will not be on the lower mtn! It will probably be a while before we can get a camera down into Grizzly or Snow Valley. – Jim
