Good morning trail users! As the season nears the end, the classic track on Ridge, Richter, and Bog trails has officially retired…those trails have been groomed flat and are ready for skate skiers. Lighted loops, Dbl. Bbl., and Spencer were groomed along with efforts to cover bare spots and puddles. Spencer and Double Bubble appear to be in the best condition and should ski fine. Use caution, mind the spring conditions and enjoy what is left of a long exciting 25/26 winter season. Have fun and be well everyone.

Last day for the snowcats this spring. Green Loop and Dark Alley are skiable with minimal puddles and mud. Lower section of Roller Coaster…well, you don’t know unless you go. We went and it’s not good. Lots of mud and ice. Enjoy the last day of skiing!
