Winter woke up from its catnap today by giving us some snow and a taste of what’s to come. With cold weather headed our way, snowmakers plan to refresh up to 60% of our open terrain through early next week!
Our snowmakers have been busy this week, cranking the guns 24/7 and giving us awesome conditions all over the mountain. There’s lots going on this weekend, including the South Peak Skin and Ski Race and the King of The East competition. Check out the video for details!
Take a stroll down memory lane with Loon EveryMonth: December. Watch footage from the Cease and Desist Rail Jam (o.k., that was in November) and check out sick early-season riding from some of our favorite locals.
We’ll be releasing new Loon EveryMonth edits throughout the winter. Look for the next edit in early February.
A lot goes into running a place like Loon Mountain, and Ralph Lewis is the guy who makes it all happen. Take a few minutes to get to know Ralph, our director of skiing operations, and see Loon from his point of view.
The first nor’easter of the year dumped 6-8″ of super light, fluffy snow just in time for first chair on Friday. Check out this quick edit, and get up here this weekend!
