It has not stopped snowing for 4 days. The Lake Effect Snow kicks in and out every few hours. the sun even comes out in between snow showers. We have had 4 groomers out every day keeping up with the snow and the base is compacted and skiing well. We are planning on the Highlands to be open this weekend …or sooner.
More Snow!
I hate to sound like a broken record but it keeps snowing.Lake effect snow brought us another 6-8 inches today! Trails are really smoothing out nicely.
Lake Effect Snow is unpredictable!
We picked up about 12 inches of lake effect in the last 24 hours. The trails have been groomed this morning and tonight and all 4 groomers will be back out in the morning. The trails are looking like a winter wonderland!
New Snow
We received about 3-4 inches of fresh snow so far today and the groomers are headed out again tonight. This is just what we ordered to get the trails in winterlike conditions. We will be all groomed up for Sunday skiing. Skiers were very happy today with the afternoon conditions
Trails are ready for the weekend
We have the trails set for Saturday. The base is firm with a few icy areas. The classic tracks are set along the main trails and also have a few thin areas. The skiers have been very satisfied with conditions. The snow coming this afternoon and tonight should smooth things out nicely.
