This Carnival is one of just six on this year’s Eastern Intercollegiate Ski Association (EISA) circuit. This race draws the best skiers and teams in the region. Yesterday’s race was a giant slalom and today’s race is slalom. Both races are being held on Black Snake, Snake Bite, and the Practice Slope. This level of racing is incredible to watch, especially on Snake Bite!
Today we have top-to-bottom skiing and riding on all 3 mountains with all 8 lifts operating. We have 75 trails open with terrain for all ability levels. We received 3 inches of new snow overnight and 21 inches in the past week. Surface conditions are powder and packed powder with average base depths of 14 to 44 inches. 34 trails have been groomed for today, including Smugglers’ Alley, Upper FIS, and Snow Snake for a total of 176 acres of freshly groomed terrain. Currently, it is partly sunny and -5 at the summit of Sterling with winds of 5 to 10 mph. Today’s forecast is calling for partly sunny skies with a high of 6 degrees at the base and 2 degrees at higher elevations. Bundle up and enjoy the fantastic conditions!
