With negative news dominating the media, skiing seems to be the perfect way to forget those problems for a few hours. Last minute bookings are up, perhaps due to airlines lower fares and American Skiing’s discount packages. Most of all, folks may need to escape. Scerenity, views, the sound of the skies (and boards) on the snow providing a way to get out and enjoy life. I don’t think this is an example of ignoring today’s problems or burying one’s head in snow. It’s just a way to focus on fun. We are thrilled to have visitors from all over the world. They love the champagne powder and friendly spirit displayed by everyone they meet.

Tuesday, January 13th, 2009If your passion is powder skiing, catch the next flight to Steamboat Springs.
According to the Weather Channel (weather.com) The Mt. Werner base is 59-71″ with 8″ of new snow in the past 2 days. The ski index is a 9 out of 10 and the temperature is a balmy 29 degrees. Adjusting to altitude is easier at our valley base of 6800 feet than most other ski areas. Enjoy the snow.
