Join Us!
We had a great opening weekend with bluebird skies, thanks to everyone who came out to enjoy it! Our Mountain Ops crew have been hard at work and we’re going to have Ryan’s Run by Friday and we will begin making snow on Oak Mountain Run, Upper Speculator and Madison Ave tomorrow!
The holidays are right around the corner and we hope to see you out here on the hill. Lessons and race training have begun and there are smiles all around. We have apres ski music this weekend with Seth Owen Becker and if you haven't tried the tasty new delights at Acorn, we hope you do! Chef Justin has been creating some delectable specials.
We will be open for skiing and riding this weekend from 9am to 4pm, Friday through Sunday.
We look forward to seeing everyone soon!

Be Aware of The Down Hill Skier
Tips for Avoiding Collisions
Complementing the Responsibility Code, #RideAnotherDay promotes 3 actions every skier and rider can take to help keep themselves and those around safer on the slopes. By doing these three things every run, you’ll be helping keep the slopes safe and enjoyable, for you and everyone else.
1. Be Ready
Be ready to slow down or avoid objects or other people at any time. Ski and ride in such a way that you are always able to control yourself regardless of conditions and avoid others and objects you may encounter on the run, groomed or otherwise.
2. Stay Alert
Stay alert to what’s going on around you, especially other skiers and riders. Being aware of those around and changing conditions will help you have a fun and safe day on the hill.
3. Plan Ahead
Ease up at blind spots, check uphill when merging onto trails, and give other skiers plenty of room when passing. Look out for spots on the run where traffic merges or you can't see what's coming next. If you are unfamiliar with a run, take it easy the first time down it and make note of places where you'll want to slow down, such as cat tracks and rollers. Also, give other skiers and riders lots or room, especially if you are passing them. There's plenty of space out there, so there's no need to crowd each other.
By doing these three things every run, you'll be helping keep the slopes safe and enjoyable, for you and everyone else.
Apres Ski Begins!
