The End of an Era...We are Shutting Down the Messageboard

The messageboard is now in read-only mode and no new posts or topics can be created. We will leave the messageboard up for historical purposes, but you will not be able to make new posts or comment on existing ones.

We have started a Discord server and hope that you all will join us on there. Technology has changed over the years and maintaining the messageboard has become somewhat of a pain in the butt and Discord offers many features for users, the main one being a very polished mobile app.

We really hope you all will join us on Discord and think you will like the platform. Use the invite link below to join.

rain.



there were bare spots @ the top of southern star, but the bottom was good. oz had a few bare spots in the areas between the guns. the mtn is still in great shape...nothing a groomer can't handle. not as busy as past mlk days.

It was not a bad day considering all of the rain they had a few days earlier.



Snow started very hard, then loosened up as the sun came out.



The workers at Beech were great....what a change from 3 years ago.

Hope Oz is open on Monday when Marz Jr. has a day off from school. I think she'll like it a lot. For her, spring skiing with temps in the 40's beats fresh powder but temps in the 20's.

Doesn't look too bad considering all of the rain, and it doesn't appear that it was too crowded either.
