Snow Reporter Comments:

6:30 AM: Grab some waterproof gear and make the best of it today with temps expected to reach into the 40s and some showers expected to roll in this morning. We'll be rocking the same terrain as yesterday with 9 of 14 open trails groomed and ready for cruising.

Super Bravo spins from 10:00 AM-5:00 PM. The weather next week continues to improve and we're getting optimistic that we may open for some bonus days. If the weather turns south again, we'll plan to close this Sunday and reopen for two final weekends, culminating with Ski & Tee Weekend on May 4th and 5th. Stay tuned for an official operating plan in the coming couple of days. And for all our Boomer Pass buds out there, we're opening up these final three weekends for you! Come out and enjoy the corn harvest.

Racer's Edge has 5 terrain park features to fulfill your late season freestyle needs.

Construction on the NEW Heaven's Gate continues. Most recently, the first three lift towers were removed so we can get to work with construction up there. Heaven's Gate and Castlerock are closed, as well as all terrain skier's left of Lower Organgrinder including Domino, parts of Lower Jester, Heaven's Gate Traverse, and Gondolier. It is imperative that skiers and riders obey all signage marking the closed portions of these trails. They are closed because they are within an active construction site, so disobeying this signage puts you and our mountain operators at significant risk of accident or injury. Thank you for obeying posted signage and trail closures. "Closed" means CLOSED.

Season Passes are already on sale for next season, and they get you free skiing for the rest of this year too. For those not ready to commit to a pass, Quad Packs are back and one of the best deals in skiing! Book your stay at Sugarbush today-- you won't want to miss the sunny, slushy turns that April has to offer. Be sure to check out our events calendar to see what sweet events we've got coming up this Spring.

In the world of uphill travel, the entirety of Mt. Ellen is fair game for your uphill endeavors. The morning Lincoln Peak uphill route is now closed as our snow cats are out and about in the Spring Fling/Racer's Edge area at that time. BUT, you've got free range of Gate House/North Lynx, so grab those skins and get after it! And as always, be courteous of our mountain operators, who are still boppin' around at Ellen and on the Gate House side. Check out our website for our designated uphill travel routes and more information.
