The Ski Resort opened two trails on the lower mountain on Saturday after a week of snowmaking and a modest natural snowfall. The beginner tow is running, and the main lift will follow when the upper trails are covered.
Season passes are still available at the lodge office at last year's price. The lodge kitchen is serving its chili again, which several readers have asked about since March.
