Ohhh boy is it coming down! It has been a blizzard all day. Duncan just called down with the afternoon update and said it is so deep that if you step off the track where the snowcats have been you sink in chest deep!

So with 60 inches at the base and over 75 inches up on top, according to snocountry.com's data base, we now have the highest snowbase of any ski area in the world!

We are also advising you that due to this tremendous snowfall, in simple terms: stay out of the backcountry. It is extremely unstable and extremely dangerous.

We will be doing extensive snow control work inside the ski area the next few days to prepare for opening day, so please be advised of that as well.

Stay tuned, because it is looking like this coming Tuesday, will be the deepest powder day opening we have had in more than 25 years!
