Champagne Powder and Cats for the People.

Wow - what a week of catskiing we have had.  150 cms in 7 days and 100 in 24 hours last Saturday.  All super dry, Champagne Powder.  One of the single biggest days on record.  The phrase 'almost too deep" was heard a few times...  This season is certainly stacking up to be another stellar snow year.  Ullar the snowgod has been looking upon us favorably.  We are booked solid until mid March, but have a few openings March 14-18, March 20-22 and the last week of March.

Here a couple photos from the yesterday:

New snow overnight - Thanks Ullar!

After an uneventful couple weeks, our catskiing terrain received 20 cms overnight.  The sun is rising and it looks like it will be a bluebird powder day!
Nothing is better of course.

Snowcats in the alpine

After a month of what seems like constant snow, the skies have cleared and the alpine bowls beckon.  Our mountain team did some heli bombing last week and we were able to open all our alpine ski terrain.   Our high snowcat drops are at about 7,800 feet and are simply spectacular.  What a great time of year!
