Thanks to everyone who joined us over the long weekend. It was a blast with the hit of snow Saturday, sunshine yesterday and light flurries today. The week is continuing to refresh every day this week. This will be a great week to bring the family up and cruise around, for those of you who happen to be out of school on the midwinter break. For those rolling kid free grab your buddies, pack your gear, and get ready to shred like the jedi you are! It is going to be some fun riding.
This week we will be operating out of Heather Meadows. Head up top to our upper lodge for more snow, great food, lessons, rentals, and the FREE Heather Meadows handle tow.
We’ve got some great events on the horizon. Check out the website to learn more about our All-Mountain Clinics and Branch Out Session, both on Feb. 28. The Branch Out Session is a gathering of female freestylers, and those who support them, in The Sticks, Mt. Baker Ski Area’s Feature Zone located off of C-¾. There participants will enjoy an afternoon of freestyle riding and skiing together.
Below we’ve got everything you need to know about tomorrow’s operations. Check out what’s going on and plan for an awesome Tuesday on the hill.
