Snow Reporter Comments: April 15th, 10:45 AMWelcome to another warm, and perhaps a little wet, Wednesday on the hill with temps expected to sit in the 50s and 60s with a chance for showers throughout the day. With the warm temps overnight, the grooming team focused on second shift resurfacing, with 9 of 18 open trails groomed for your spring skiing delight.  Conditions across the board should stay soft and spring-like with groomed terrain making for the best soft turns. Note that patrol is out assessing terrain for potential closures. Some trails may require walking. Please read posted signage before entering trails, as difficulties have changed due to conditions and thin coverage in spots. We’re getting down on 119 skiable acres with 2 scheduled lifts and 11 of 21 trails groomed. Operations have moved to weekday Spring hours, with Valley House spinning from 10:00 AM - 5:00 PM and Heaven's Gate spinning 10:00 AM - 4:00 PM. Valley House will be operating in place of Super Bravo for the remainder of the season as the snow pack continues to shrink.How many consecutive days are you at?
