Could it get any better?! Eighteen folks joined our first trip of 2025 and there was adventure for all…skiing, hiking, snowshoeing, and shopping. Some people were actually able to fit in a little of everything! 

The Mountain Inn team welcomed us Sunday with an awesome buffet. Throughout the week, people dined at local restaurants or at the Inn restaurant which offered delicious food and live music. We gathered daily by the fireplace to trade stories and indulge in snacks and beverages. Special thanks to Helgard for sharing!

Plenty of snowmaking before we arrived and 3-6” of fresh powder every day resulted in the best skiing in recent memory. People enjoyed the gentle greens, blue cruisers, and ungroomed black

diamond (those who dared). We had to brave near zero temps, but everyone came prepared to keep warm. The downhillers skied many trails, but a favorite was Great Eastern, a 3.5-mile-

long uninterrupted run with perfect conditions all week. One person said “I feel like I’m dancing with the mountain!” I think everyone could agree. 

Cross-county skiers happily reported on the scenic, wooded trails near Crittenden. Shopping and hiking around nearby Woodstock were also noted as fun ways to spend a day.

After four days of clouds and snow, Friday dawned with sunshine, blue skies, and warmer temperatures. For the people who stayed and skied, it was a perfect ending to a phenomenal week. Those who left early may have missed a snowbird day, but will remember all the fun shared during our visit to The Beast!
