Update - Sunday 8 September @ 06:00 - CLOSED

Yesterdays warm temps followed by rain have made a rather large dent in our lower mountain including lift line, learners area and tracks. There is some snow in the forecast over the next 2 - 3 day but unfortunately we will have to remain CLOSED until we have a clearer picture on what that looks like. Please bear with us and we will update when we know more.
