Huge fluffy snow flakes

The Village is electric with huge fluffy snow flakes falling down to the village and the announcement that WB will open this weekend for Cornucopia.  Now, if my memory serves me correct in 1997/98 season we had a stellar summer, awesome fall and an early opening with record breaking snow!  In fact that season our average base was around 400cm and Baker broke the world record of over 100 feet of snow that season!  I feel we could be on a repeat for this coming season and I am so excited! 

Reminder that our Super Early Bird discounts will expire in the next FIVE Days (Nov. 15th) so if you have not booked your accommodation or event tickets we do suggest doing it right away.  You can book with confidence knowing you will get the best rate guaranteed
