Do you still have snow???

Easy question to answer.  Yes, we do.  We have A LOT of snow. 

A few days of mild weather and a couple hours of wet weather do not melt a lot of snow.  We might loose some, however, the amount is measured in INCHES not FEET.....60-70 inches average base depth means we have plenty of snow for skiing and riding. 

With the weather forecast predicting major cold returning this week and lasting well into the first full week of March, the season is not going to end any time soon.
