Christmas tree waits for bulbs and tinsel in Tourtelotte Park

Gray skies ruled the day and a breeze came cutting through the afternoon,
but it was still a good day for poking around the mountain. Aztec and Spring
Pitch were nicely groomed and skiing well. Aspen Mountain reported a 22-inch
base this morning with 523 acres open and 28 percent of its advance/expert
terrain open. Highlands was reporting a 56 inch base in the Northwoods, 770
open acres and 80 percent of its advanced/expert terrain open. (People are
remarking how quiet it has been at Highlands and how good the snow has been
in the Bowl - shocking, I know). Snowmass has a 44-inch base on top and a
whopping 1,790 acres of terrain open. Of the advanced/expert terrain at
Snowmass, 30 percent is open. Buttermilk has a 24-inch base and is 100
percent open with 408 acres. All for you. Just bring an ornament for the
Christmas tree.
