Yes! We are refinishing all the rails and boxes from last year in preparation for opening day. We are starting to build Monday in lil' Rodeo and I will update you with some photos once we move some snow. The temps have been great and the piles are...
Thanks for sharing the article, gets me pretty excited for our trip after New Years.
I hope this storm helps out, and it looks like cooler temps will follow in the evenings. Hopefully that will help the snowmaking efforts and we'll have a few opt...
I woke up today and it was 51 degrees this morning. Definitely too warm but hopefully soon, we're supposed to get a storm tonight.
Here's a good article to check out about late openings and how much snow we get.
