Check out this family snow tubing at top speed:
It is dumping snow in Winter Park this week – almost 2 feet of the good stuff has fallen in the last 24 hours (see photo to left taken on Dec 4th)! The lifts are running and tomorrow the resort will open Zephyr so you can get top to bottom on fresh powder. All of the hard-core skiiers and snowboarders are shreddin’ the ‘nar (phrase used by aforementioned hard-core locals). Check out our snowfall update page for more photos of the most recent snowfall. Call 1-877-329-1383 to book your lodging.
We got a few inches last night and it’s dumping right now.
The Aplenglow is coming out and it’s time to get those skiis tuned and hit the mountain!
