Received at least 3" Sunday morning. Wind blew off the main face and deposited it across the lower lying and wind protected slopes. There is a lot of natural power to be had! One of the best seasons in a very long time. Great coverage and whole mountain open. It's been an Epic season

Mad River

Mad River Mountain is Ohio's largest ski resort, located only a short drive from Columbus, Dayton, and Lima in Zanesfield, Ohio. The resort opened in 1962 and will begin the 50th season of operations this season. Over the years, the facility has grown from a small commuter resort into the 144-acre winter playground that it is today. The sheer size of the resort allows the staff to provide programs and terrain not found at <a href="https://www.onthesnow.com/midwest/ski-resorts">other Midwest resorts</a>.

For skiing and riding, the resort&rsquo;s guests will find six chair and six surface lifts accessing 24 slopes and trails, including two progressive terrain parks, Momentum and Capital Park.
Customers can also experience everyone&rsquo;s favorite new way to enjoy the snow at the Avalanche Tubing Park. Featuring 10 newly extended chutes, each 1000 feet long, and serviced by two conveyor lifts to zip you and your tube to the top, Avalanche Tubing Park equals no-skills-required fun.

With 133 fan guns the Resort has the ability to pump over 7,000 gallons of water per minute to cover 100 percent of their terrain.
