Conditions as of February 03, 2012 at 1:49 PM EST


 


Today at Sugarloaf

 

A grooming machine is an amazing thing. Conditions have improved hugely in just the last 24 hours, thanks to some painstaking work by our nighttime grooming crew. The corduroy this morning was zippy and grippy, with just enough spunk to hold an edge. The snow was nearly perfect for carving huge GS turns down slopes like Competition Hill and Upper Gondi Line, and I even set a personal speed record using my Sugarloaf Replay App. I won't tell you how fast I was going, but I can assure you that it was a reasonable and prudent speed. Ski/ride safe.

 

Conditions are only going to get better this weekend with continued grooming and cold temperatures. You'll definitely want to be here on Saturday, when we'll debut our massive Superpipe. If you've been scouring the country looking for a pipe the size of a nuclear submarine, your long search is over.

 

Remember, a few of our natural snow trails will remain closed until we can pick up a bit of powder. There's still plenty of snow out there, but things are fairly crusty after the thaw/freeze cycle we experienced earlier this week. Trails could reopen at any time this weekend, so be sure to stay updated by following our #slsnow feed on Twitter.

 

News/Events:  

February and March are two of our snowiest months here at Sugarloaf, and we want to share the pow. Our February and March Ski and Stay Package gives you access to all that snow, with rates starting at just $79 per person, per night. This deal ends Feb. 10, so make reservations soon.

 

Deer Tick is coming to Sugarloaf in a week! This raw, energetic group will be here on Feb. 11 for our Bud Light Concert Series, along with opening act Adam Ezra Group. You won't want to miss it, so get your tickets today.

 

Deals/Packages:

Do you prefer your lunches with a side of steeze? This weekend, check out Hot Doggin', our newest eatery in the base lodge. The gourmet hot dogs they serve up are the ultimate chairlift food, so you don't have to sacrifice laps on the Superquad for lunch in the base lodge. Season pass holders can snarf frankfurters for half price this weekend.

 

Hot dogs are swell, but we've got even better deals at the Sugarloaf Ski Shop. Beginning this Saturday, we'll offer a 25% discount on some of your favorite brands. If the money you saved on hot dogs is burning a hole in your pocket, the ski shop is the place to go.
