The 2011/2012 winter season features new magic carpets in the Easy Acres learning area that make learning to ski and board easier than ever! Easy Acres features four new carpets, which are just like moving walkways you would see at an airport. These Magic Carpets will be the longest in North America and feature covered canopies to protect you from the elements. The carpets can be found on our new runs, Easy Street and The Big Easy.
Also new this season, night skiing on Sundays! Night skiing opens December 15 and will run every Thursday to Sunday as well as every night during holiday periods. Bring on the snow!
