We always have a few challenges at the first part of each Blizzard season with signup glitches. This year is not an exception. There is no need to be the first in line at 7 AM to register on Monday morning, but please signup before 6 PM on Wednesday to avoid paying a penalty late fee.

Week #1 was great early skiing. Alpine had good coverage and the slopes were not overly crowded. For most kids, this was their first time on snow since last March. We recognize that and take it slow in lessons for the first couple of weeks. That means getting used to the feeling of being on snow before you test out the Terrain Park for the season. And, By the way, any skier level C and under should not be in the Terrain Park, at all.
