Trail updates
First groom of the year! Washington Pass lookout was packed last night and this morning with the 6-10 inches that fell on the pass over the last few days. No classic tracks, but skiing is possible for those who are itching to get on those skis. Parking is limited, and continued grooming is dependent on users responsibly parking off the highway and outside the fog line. If there is not room to park them come back at a later time or better yet carpool! 2 more days to purchase your pass at early season rates. You only have to ski 11 days to make it pay off, and even better, you make our operations possible for everyone!
For all the talk about a "super" El Niño, our early fall is indicating a cooler, wetter-than-average trend! In fact, our last three El Niño years have produced an average of 119 days of grooming on our trail network, which is exactly the same as our average over the last decade. We have already had a half dozen high mountain storms that have dropped snow each time. Here we go!
Be ready for the season by purchasing our early season passes here before prices increase.
Thank you for your support of the trails through the purchase of your trail pass.
