Zuma Grooming

The grooming in Montezuma Bowl is in absolutely top form. It is amazing how much work the Cat Drivers have done back there since December. This annual project starts with catching snow piles with snow fences and having the Cat Drivers push and connect the piles. The piles turn into paths and the paths turn into ski trails. This past week, Columbine and Larkspur were buffed and smooth and the trails were wide, wide, wide. The Drivers work at night and we don't see them that much, but they are a critical link to creating these tremendous ski trails.

Enduro

The Enduro, A-Basin's grueling 10 hour ski event, is tomorrow. All proceeds from this year's event will go to Dave Repsher and his family. Dave is a flight paramedic and Copper Mountain ski patroller. He was critically injured in last summer's Flight for Life helicopter crash and remains hospitalized. Come enjoy this fun event and put a few bucks towards a good cause.

While participation slots in the event itself sold out within a few hours, there are other ways to be a part of the Enduro. You can just come watch. You can participate in the new Enduro Light, a non-competitive, easy, less intensive ski tour of A-Basin. You will get a chance to find hidden secrets and fun facts about The Basin. You can register for this on our website.

Lastly, come to the Apres Ski Party in the A-Frame. Food and cheer will go alongside an extensive silent auction and a great party. Hope you can make it.

The course had lots of ups and down and criss-crossed around the mountain. Participants ranged from hard core endurance athletes to recreationist enjoying a snow showery evening on the hill. Our Rando Race Series through the season has been successful and full of fun.
