The resort invested more than $1 million this year for additional automated snowmaking—meaning more fresh powder for the slopes. On Wednesdays, discounts for college students are now $35 for a four-hour day or night pass, equipment rental, and a free lesson. The resort was also recognized as one of the best in the nation for beginners by the National Ski Areas Association. From opening day until December 23, and every Thursday in January, skiing rookies can pay just $39 for a learn to ski or snowboard package (regular rates are $87).
