Headline: I’m Singing…I Mean Skiing In The Rain, I’m Happy Again

Good Morning Wildcat Community –

All I could think about when coming up with the headline for the day was Gene Kelly swinging around a lamp post just singing in the rain with a big smile on his face. Well, guess what, we can too as its always been my motto that some of the best skiing and riding is in the rain. So strap on your spring skis, grab your best waterproof clothing, and come enjoy some great soft turns across the mountain today. We are attempting to ski & ride on all open trails from the summit today based on initial assessments, however given conditions today our operating footprint may change. As always, stay tuned to the My Epic App, this report, and the Lift & Terrain Status page for the most up to date information, and our teams will pivot between lifts to get as much terrain open as possible today!

There’s no way around it as today’s weather is going to be wet, however it does look as though we may see some lighter or even a gap in precipitation around mid-morning to mid-day before another wave comes in later in the evening and overnight. Temps will remain steady where they are now between the upper 30’s to low 40’s across mountain elevations. The bright side are that winds are expected to remain calm throughout the day.

We will be open today from 9am – 4pm with 2 lifts and 19 trails including the Wildcat Express and Snowcat lifts. The grooming team was unable to make it up high last night given overnight temps and conditions, so expect ungroomed trails on Polecat, Lynx, Cat Track, Upper Catapult, & Middle Wildcat. As stated above, as Patrol begins to assess terrain conditions and snow pack, operations may shift to the Bobcat lift if needed. Regardless we are determined to ski today and there will definitely be some great trails to enjoy when you get here.  Trail of the Day:  Wild Kitten

Our famous Wildcat Trail pins and other free limited-edition pins are back while supplies last, so stop by guest services to ask for your favorite trail! 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% as we go into before all the good stuff is gone!

This week is definitely going to be an interesting one with the weather ahead but honestly the mountain is holding up really well right now thanks to the hard work of the entire Wildcat Crew. We plan to keep skiing and riding as long as possible, and looking towards the weekend we are excited for our Spring Fling Bash all weekend with beach themed activities, music, and good vibes! Couple this with the always popular Egg Hunt on Easter Sunday and its going to be a good one.

Get out and enjoy it, and we’ll see you out there!
