It was a challenging one, with Mother Nature not exactly delivering on snowfall, but we’re incredibly grateful for our amazing team, especially our snowmakers and park staff. Despite record-breaking warm temperatures, we were able to stay open for a couple of months and had a lot of fun along the way.As we wrap up the season, our team will shift gears and begin work on the bike park as soon as possible. Snow Valley's bike park is planned to open first with Snow Summit following. After assessing snow conditions early this week, including how quickly it’s melting, how soon trails can be built, and getting rental bikes ready, we’ll have a better idea of our timeline.
