Over A Foot Now - Carpool and Summit Stage

For the 3rd day in a row we reported 4 inches of new snow. Plus, it has been snowing since report time. We are well over a foot for this storm with more coming. I was able to take a few quick spins on the hill this morning. If you are fan of powder skiing, you would love being at The Basin right now. It is incredible, especially in the Lenawee Parks zone.

Now one thing that happens with Spring powder days is people carpool less. We have way more vehicles coming up with one person per vehicle. On big powder days, the parking can fill up quickly while traffic on the mountain is moderate with plenty of room for everyone.

Make sure you get up here in the next few days. It will be so worth it. We are going into one of those truly exceptional times. That said, avoid coming up solo in your vehicle. The Summit Stage is running normal hours Saturday and Sunday (no Stage on weekdays). Ride the Stage or carpool with a friend or two (or more).

You don't want to miss these conditions.
