Sugarloaf Update 11/29/12

Strait from the site:


It was another beautiful day here on the mountain.  Sunny skies and moderate winds greeted skiers and riders this morning as they took to the slopes.  Sugarloafers didn't have to wait long for conditions to change however, because by late morning winds had died down and by early afternoon flurries gave way to some decent snow showers.  Whoever is out there shaking the snow globe, keep it coming!

Flurries and squalls are forecasted to continue into this evening, and although it's not expected to add up to more than a heavy dusting, it sure does feel good to bask in this wintery goodness.  Come tomorrow you can expect partly sunny skies with colder temperatures in the single-digits and teens.  This will undoubtedly prove to be prime conditions for our snowmakers, who will continue blasting snow over Snowbrook and the Birches, Candyside, Competition Hill, and Cribworks on Narrow Gauge.  Crews have also entered into The Stomping Grounds terrain park, so for all our park enthusiasts, it's time to start getting excited.

If you plan hitting the slopes tomorrow you can expect great skiing and riding with fast, grippy surface conditions.  Groomers will be out in force tonight covering all open trails, including recently opened terrain on Lower Tote Road and Narrow Gauge.  Don't forget to bundle up tomorrow, and enjoy some truly fabulous end of November skiing and riding!

Ticket Prices for tomorrow are $49 for adults, and $35 for juniors/seniors and teens.

Deals:
Don't forget if you're a college student tomorrow is the last day to grab your New England College pass for just $359 before prices go up.

After a gourmet powder day and a few beverages at Bullwinkle’s, the last thing you want is to drive home.  This season, you can ditch the idea of sleeping in your car and head directly to a hot shower and cozy bed.  With Zoom Rooms,  you’ve got prepaid lodging in the palm of your hand.  Now, you can grab a room, stay the night and do it all over again in the morning.
