Snow Reporter Comments: February 6th, 1:42 PM*Northridge is on mechanical hold*Good afternoon skiers and riders! Today is the day to get out and enjoy some beautiful turns before the bone‑chilling cold settles back in. This weekend, those colder temps return after our brief taste of spring, but the good news is more snow is on the way, with snow showers expected this evening into Saturday for a chance of 4 or more inches! Tomorrow's forecast calls for cloudy skies, with wind increasing throughout the day, which may affect lift operations. Temps will open with upper single digits at the summit and mid-teens at the base in the morning, but temperatures will continue to drop during the course of the day. Bundle up because temps will be into the negative by the afternoon. We’ll be getting down on 484 skiable acres, served by 16 lifts, with 52 of 111 trails groomed, including fan favorites like Ripcord, Birch Run, and Cruiser. Look forward to top-tier machine groomed conditions, along with packed powder across the mountain.Operations are moving to regular weekend hours. GMX, Super Bravo, and Heaven's Gate will get the party started, loading at 8:00 AM. All other scheduled lifts open at 9:00 AM, with the exception of Slide Brook at 10:00 AM, which may close early due to temperatures. The legendary Sugarbush Parks crew has you covered for all your freestyle fun.  At Mt. Ellen, you’ll find over 94 features on Riemergasse and another 28 on Sugar Run, all serviced by the iconic Sunny Quad. At Lincoln Peak, Slowpoke now has 18 refreshed features, and 7 playful features remain in Sugarbear Forest. Sugar Run will be reserved tomorrow for competition, the lower half will remain open to the public, and accessible via Riemergasse. Brambles and Inverness will be closed to the public for race training today and tomorrow.
