Mother Nature continues to play her games and toy with our emotions. Last night she dropped two inches of the creamy desirables on us. Then sometime early this morning she decided to sprinkle some gram crackers on the top to give it just a little bit of a crunch. By the looks of our forecast for this weekend I’d be willing to bet a lot of ya’ll have been doing your snow dancing, your prayers, and your sacrifices because there are early indications that old man winter might just be slightly satisfied.
Saddleback – 6 trails and 3 lifts
We picked up a fresh 2-3’’ of snow overnight. It’s not much, but it’s something! Today temps will be warmer, hovering in the mid-30s to 40s. The primary snow surface is wet groomed. Wind may present issues later in the afternoon so stay tuned to this page and Twitter for updates.
