Upper East Wall

Life is pretty good when you have two feet of new snow and the Upper East Wall is open.

25 Inches So Far

This has been an extraordinary Spring storm. Yes, we received 25 inches of new snow the last two days. I know Saturday was rough for some people. I apologize to everyone that had planned to be here that day and was not able to enjoy the snow.



This morning we did open all lifts and most of the terrain. The skiing was tremendous, especially in those places favored by the storm. The Ski Patrol is hard at work getting the East Wall ready. Most importantly, this snow is really setting us up for an EVEN better (and longer) spring.  Great, great, great news.

15 Inches and One Seriously Windy Day

We don't see days like this very often. The great news was 15 inches of snow at report time and lots more that followed. The bad news was heinous winds, too windy to open most of the day. Black Mountain Express was open for the last hour and fifteen minutes. Here is a picture of the Ski Patrol in the morning.We have every intention of opening at normal times tomorrow. We will see what Mother Nature brings. She can be tough sometimes.

We think we raised over $20,000 so far and we're still accepting donations on our website (shop.arapahoebasin.com). The vintage Pallavicini trail sign was a big auction item, selling for $2,400.
