Today at Mt. Bachelor
Thursday, May 23, 2013 |
Time of Report: 2:00 PM |
Thursday was unexpectedly sunny for most of the day... but now we're looking forward to more SNOW headed our way overnight and into Friday! Please be aware that there is just enough new snow to deceptively cover rocks and bare areas that had previously been exposed. We strongly recommend enjoying the fresh powder on our open, primary runs. Please use caution, look for marked and unmarked obstacles and obey all signage... and ENJOY!
We're in our final week of the 2012-2013 winter season... and we hope all of you can join us for our Finale Weekend, May 26-26! Saturday will feature the Sammy Carlson Invitational and on Sunday, it's the annual North American Pond Skimming Championships. The 3rd annual BrewSki Beer Festival will be going on both days and the Deschutes Brewery Concert Series concludes with MOsley WOtta live on Saturday and the Moon Mountain Ramblers on Sunday. Make plans to be here!
Midweek Season Passes will be valid to use on our closing day, Sunday, May 26! And don't forget to bring your pass to the mountain. This time of year, our Season Pass office is lightly staffed... and we don't want you to spend valuable on-mountain time standing in a line at the Pass office to get an "I forgot" ticket!
