Good morning, Okemo!  

The Ides of March have come and gone, but with it, we have seen some of the transitional weather we get in March. The seasons are changing, the sun angle is changing, and the weather becomes mixed.  This morning we are seeing some of all of this.  Today's weather will impact lift operations, which may mean slower lift speeds as well as lift closures.  As the morning is beginning, we are dealing with icing on the summit lifts as well as significant and gusty winds.

Our plan is to begin with Coleman Brook, Quantum 6, Base Quad A & Black Ridge.  Next in line will be Solitude and then the Sunburst 6.  The South Face Express and Sunshine Quad will not operate today.  The skiing surface will be loose granular spring conditions as we progress through the day.  92 trails and 10 lifts are scheduled, but this will change throughout the day.  

It's that time of year where natural hazards peak through a bit on the trails.  Keep your head on a swivel and be aware of spring condition obstacles like a bare rock, grass patches, and natural moguls.  Check your My Epic App for up-to-date condition & lift reports.  Wardance and its connecting trails are on hold for racing operations.  Supporting tomorrow’s Olympic champions and the Okemo Competition Center is source of pride for us and keeps the spirit of competition alive.

Re-energize at one of our culinary options for lunch.  Visit the Bull for a burger and a Vermont Craft Beer, The Coleman Brook Tavern for a Fiddlehead Bratwurst or a Turkey Pot Pie and 43North features fresh healthy and robust salads.   Our Quick Service Restaurants are also open, stop in at the Base Cafe, Summit Lodge, Sugar House, Round House, and the Biergarten.

Have a great day today!  We are happy you chose to ski & ride here at Okemo,
