Spring vibes but not for long!
Spring vibes but not for long!
We’re kicking off March with perfectly clear skies and warm, springlike weather—an absolute dream for a day on the slopes! Yesterday, we wrapped up February with fantastic conditions up top, and today is just as ideal for exploring the mountain and soaking up the sunshine. 🌞
For the best midday break, Hikage Station is a great spot to grab lunch and relax in the sun. Or, if you’re up for even better views, take a ride up to Buna on Paradise Slope and treat yourself to a soft ice cream while overlooking the mountains! 🍦🏔️
Enjoy the bluebird skies while they last because winter isn’t done yet! ❄️ Starting Sunday night, temperatures will drop, and fresh snow will return, bringing back that magical winter wonderland. 🌨️
