Snow Ridge will be open Friday from 10am to 4pm with one lift serving 6+ trails. We will be skiing and riding on powder, powder and more powder.
It’s gonna be a wonderful day to spend on the slopes – especially being all the snow is from Mother Nature. Plan on being here early.

I grew up in the snow belt that sweeps the Tug Hill Plateau. As a kid I had no appreciation of lake effect. I thought snowfall was latitude dependent and that it snowed that much everywhere. The snowbanks were higher than the car sometimes. It definitely got me stoked for a lifetime on skis.

I think I need to move back east where it still snows
Such a fun little hill to ski growing up. If only the tug hill plateau had a little more vert.
