Sunday, March 30th. 7:45am
Good Sunday morning from our snowy slopeside perch on the lower flanks of Mt Bachelor. The view from the lodge shows a mostly cloudy sky shifting high overhead and quiet, calm conditions in the forests beyond. The full network of trails (except Maiden's Bluff and Todd Creek) is refreshed with firm and granular skate corduroy and classic tracks. The morning snow temp is -6C / 21*F and the air temp reads 24*F. It's fast, flowy, and refreshing out there! The arrival of the next wave of flurries is anticipated this afternoon, along with a slight warm up and moderate winds. The full roster of snowshoe trails is packed and prepped and open for business. All in all, it's shaping up to be a pretty great Sunday!
There are just 2 days left to complete The Every Trail Challenge. March 31st at 4pm is the official challenge end date, and final results and prizes will be awarded on April 1st. With a welcome reprieve from fresh snow this weekend, conditions are optimal for a grand traverse of the Nordic trail network. At least 5 more intrepid Nords submitted results yesterday! Before undertaking this epic outing, be sure to read The Challenge rules and details on our website:

Passholder Appreciation Weekend is still in high gear with fun events and perks for season passholders being offered all around the resort.

Just flash your pass for the deals! Speaking of passes, the Nordic Spring Pass goes live on April 1
st (no joke!) and provides Nordic trail access through our planned season end date of May 26th. That's nearly 2 months of groomed skiing for $139 (all ages). Pick up your Spring Pass online or at the Nordic Lodge.
