Trail Condition

BlackHawk Ski Area

The rain over the last 3 days has taken a toll. Siberian Hwy is basically an ice rink. Several areas are showing dirt. Course appears to be in need of a good tilling with a PB. This afternoon’s ski was not fun. So far this winter is worse than last year. Hope it improves. Thanks …

Good skiing conditions today, but… would it be possible not to park Piston Bully in the way of the skiers? Today it was parked next to that near-90 dgrs downhill turn making the skiers take the larger radius for the turn, with many of them barely balancing to stay on track and not to get …

Nicely groomed. As of 1p, the turns at the base of the downhills are getting a tad icy and slightly carved. But nothing serious. Just advise taking your first lap slower than usual so that you can gauge it for yourself. Heia! Heia!

Unfortunately, we have decided to close the trail from today through Monday due to warm weather. This closure is necessary to preserve the snow we have made this week, given the challenges we've faced with replacing the pump in our high-capacity snowmaking well. Snowmaking for Phase 3 has been completed, and we plan to groom …
