Snow Reporter Comments: Another sunny and chilly day today! The sunshine has been welcome, but I think we’re all ready for a refresh, so let’s keep up with our snow dances! Maybe if we’re lucky, the snow showers projected for Thursday and Friday will turn into a dumping of some fresh pow. Don’t forget, Friday is Toyota Free Ski Friday! Bring your Toyota, Scion, or Lexus on January 24 and you get one free lift ticket for the day! Want to carpool or take the free shuttle? Bring your vehicle registration to the Village and you can get your free ticket that way too! We also have Winter Trails Day on Saturday, January 25 which means access to our cross country and snowshoe trails is free! Simply visit the Activity Center, Guest Services, or the Ski & Ride center for your free ticket. Rentals aren’t included, but they are available for purchase! More details for both events can be found on our website. We hope to see you up here!
