Even MORE snow...

EVEN MORE FRESH POWDER SNOW has fallen to the slopes of Brimacombe! We awoke to approximately 2-3 inches of new snow this morning and as I write, more white gold is making it's way to our trails. if you haven't made it to the Brim yet this year, there is no better time!

Looks like a chilly weekend ahead, but that's no reason to stay inside! Dress appropriately! Be sure to dress in layers that can be easily removed if you get too warm, cover all exposed skin and bring a pair of quality ski socks to change into once you arrive at the hill. Winter is a short season, MAKE THE BEST OF IT AT THE BRIM!

See you on the slopes,

Cheers,

Mark
