COLD, SNOW AND SLOPES RE-OPENING THIS WEEK

We are open today from 9a-9p skiing and riding on 14 trails with 5 lifts operating. The Plunge is open today with sessions starting at 10a and ending at 9p.

Temperatures will remain mild today with a mix of clouds and sun.  Starting overnight tonight, temperatures will begin to decline with below freezing temperatures expected by Monday night.  In addition to cold air, our weather forecast hints at the possibility of some natural snow over the next couple of days.  Elevation is a wonderful thing!

With the January thaw coming to an end, we are switching into slope rebuild mode.  Cold temperatures forecasted for this week will allow us to make lots of snow, increase base depths, re-open closed trails and provide fantastic conditions for the upcoming weekend.  Keep checking this report for the most current slope information including slope openings and our snowmaking plans.       

Terrain Park features- propane tank spine, up box jam, urban style hand rail, rainbow box, 15ft flat rail, small jump and medium jump, (2) 10ft boxes and another flat rail.

Nastar- Weather permitting, we will operate Nastar 12-2p Saturdays, Sundays and the 2 Monday Holidays. For more information about NASTAR visit http://www.wintergreenresort.com/NASTAR
