What a great start to our week of Spring Break fun! With sun in the forecast the next few days, it’s your last chance to save some money with off-peak lift ticket pricing and come get some sunny weekday spring turns - make sure to pack your sunscreen, Hawaiian shirt, and your favorite pair of shades and come get a head start on your summer tan.
We are rolling into our second day of Spring Break events with a DJ playing tunes at the White Salmon beach, and this evening we’ll have features on the handle tow from 3:30-5:30pm (a valid lift ticket or season pass required). For those camping with us this week, we’ll be having extended food service hours and a special menu, as well as some fun evening activities.
Spring is here! We can’t wait to see you on the mountain!
