“This is probably one of the best forecasts we’ve seen this time of year which is going to allow us to make lots of snow and hopefully get open for somewhere around the weekend of Dec. 15.”
Strauss says if the weather holds they hope to have their first runs open by next Friday, their new chalet will also be open at the start of the season. They’re holding an open house Sunday, Dec. 10 from 2 p.m. to 4 p.m.
