Glockenspiel Glade is rapidly becoming a fan favorite in the Beavers. Starting just at timberline west of Loafer, the trail has some very nicely spaced trees on north facing terrain. While never terribly steep, it does have some fun and rolling pitches. Good snow and good terrain.
When we say Glockenspiel, a few of you think of a xylophone type musical instrument. I know the A-Basin old-timers are thinking of something different. Glockenspiel Glade was the original name of Powderkeg. When Ralston Purina bought the place in 1978, the name was changed. With the Beavers, we tried to bring back some of that original nomenclature.
