It was a tough start to the 2014/2015 ski season, but now that the snow is falling, there is plenty of fun to be had at our regional mountains. Remember, a bad powder day on the mountain is better than no day on the Mountain or a day in the office. Here are a couple of events to keep you entertained when it’s time to unbind and unwind.
January 9th – Jackass Day at Silver Mountain. Silver celebrates its 46th birthday by offering retro priced day passes of just $12. Cake is served at 2pm and live music carries long into the night.
January 10th-11th – Wintersportsfest at 49 Degrees North. Guests are introduced to all the winter activities the mountain has to offer. You can demo the latest boards and skis and also learn to cross country ski at the Nordic center. Nordic trails are free for the weekend, and rental rates are reduced as well.
January 18th – Lookout Pass Winter Carnival. This family friendly event is a hit each year with Lookout regulars. There’s plenty for kids to see and do along with food and drink specials in the bar. Don’t miss the Northwest National Wife carrying contest!
January 17th – Northern Lights at Schweitzer Mountain. The night skies light up each year at this popular event. Skiers and riders can participate in a torchlight parade down the slopes followed by an impressive fireworks display. Live music and a party follow in the Schweitzer Village.
January 25th – Lookout Pass Bavarian Brews & Brats Festival. Grilled brats, local beers and traditional Bavarian music, what more could you ask for on a Saturday? It’s also media appreciation day so you might just catch a glimpse of your favorite local TV personality giving it their best shot on the slopes.
Pray for Powder!
