Snow Storm

Well, it looks like the jet stream has finally dropped down to provide Colorado a stream of winter storms.  Despite warmer than usual temperatures, Winter Park Ski Resort, Sol Vista Basin and the Upper Fraser Valley has seen 14 inches of snowfall this week.  We are expecting another 11 to 18 inches by Monday night which will make for some great Alpine skiing, snowmobiling, snow shoeing and Nordic skiing.  Wax is key right now with the fluctuating warm to cold temperatures so check the daily temperatures before selecting your wax.  Leaving the snow and going to the ice, Fraser has a new full size ice Rink "Icebox" that offers all types of family activities.  Grand County also offers some of the best ice fishing in the State of Colorado.

Tonight Smokin' Moes has a National Blues act that will blow your sox off, Trampeled Under Foot.  This brother/sister trio is amazingly talented and full of energy.

So get off your duff and get up to Winter Park/Fraser and have yourself a great time.  Be sure to mention this Blog in the next 5 days and receive a 15% discount off a direct booking of a Suite at the Rocky Mountain Chalet.
