Headline: Pushing Back With All Our Might
Good Morning Wildcat Community –
Well sometimes you just have to roll with the punches, and that is what we will continue to do today as we navigate a wintery mix of weather throughout the day today. Our team isn’t giving up though and the groomers continue to push back against Mother Nature’s insistence to melt our snowpack over the last couple of days, working to piece the entire mountain back together. We are hoping to get back to the summit today skiing & riding all of Polecat and Middle & Lower Lynx, however we are monitoring the likelihood of icing this morning as well as increasing winds that could impact our ability to operate the Wildcat Express. The team is going to give it our best and safest efforts to get as much terrain as possible given the conditions, and continue to appreciate everyone’s patience as we navigate this abrupt shift into full-on spring conditions and weather.
For our weather today, as mentioned we are expecting a wintery mix of precipitation starting the day out with freezing rain and sleet shifting to rain showers in the morning that are expected to taper off by mid-morning to mid-day. Temps strive to top out at 45 – 53 degrees across mountain elevations which should allow for any firm or iced over snow conditions to soften up as the day goes on. Winds will begin to increase as the front moves out of the area, where we do expect see gusts climbing into the 40 – 50 mph gust range.
We will be open today from 9am – 4pm with 3 lifts and 15 trails weather permitting today including the Wildcat Express, Bobcat, and Snowcat lifts. PLEASE NOTE - despite trails being marked as groomed on the Trail Status page, with the current weather some trails may appear ungroomed or be frozen to start the day. Given these snow conditions our green trails will not be beginner friendly today.
Despite the weather making us do our best impression of Ross from Friends yelling “pivot” while moving the couch down a staircase, there are a lot of other great things going on such as:
The guest services team have been hard at work creating another batch of our famous FREE Wildcat Trail pins and other creative limited-edition pins, so grab them while supplies last at the Guest Services Desk in the Main Lodge! And if you haven’t stopped in to grab your Wildcat logo gear at Wildcat Sports this season, now is the time as select apparel is now 30%, so stop in before all the good stuff is gone!
Looking towards the weekend we are leaning full tilt into our spring conditions so break out the sunscreen and sunglasses and wear your best tropical gear for our Spring Fling on Saturday, and if you need some extra island flair, we will have plenty of leighs and other beach party items available near the Guest Service Desk. We will have music rocking all day with a DJ playing out on the deck from 10am – 1pm, where we will be holding a costume contest for a chance to win a pair of Oakley Goggles. From 1pm to 4pm we will have Candie Trembly returning to the Wildcat Pubs stage to carry on the fun for the remainder of the day as well as Sun Cruiser promo with your chance to sample and grab some swag!
The fun continues on Easter Sunday with the always popular Egg Hunt where we will have treats hidden around the mountain including two Golden Eggs! Find one to receive a Helly Hansen prize back including a $200 gift code and other signature Wildcat swag. Current Epic Pass Holders who are skiing and riding at Wildcat this weekend (Friday-Sunday), also stop in at Guest Services to be entered to win Helly Hansen giveaways!
We are working hard to keep you, our Wildcat faithful skiing and riding as long as possible, and will continue to do what we can to keep it going out there. A day at the mountain is still better than a day at home or work, so come on out and let our team provide you with some great hospitality. We’ll see you out there!
