Powder Mountain opens Tonight!

I just learned that Powder Mountain opened at 3 pm today for Night skiing (until 9 pm) and is $15 for adults/$12 for children. The free shuttle service will pick up at the Eden parking lot at 2:30 pm, 4:00 pm and 5:30 pm until they begin daytime operations. The shuttle will depart the Sundown lift at 9:15 pm for the return to Eden. FYI – It has been snowing lightly all day and continues, so they predict day skiing will start in the near future!

Sneak Preview at New Years Eve Celebration: Powder Mountain will extend night skiing hours on December 31st to 12:15 a.m. so that New Year’s revelers can count down the beginning of 2009 on the slopes. Night skiing will open at its regular time of 3:00 p.m. and the schedule for the free shuttle service will be adjusted to accommodate New Year’s Eve guests. Children are invited to participate in a glow stick parade at 9:00 p.m.

A special 2009 New Year’s Celebration package will be offered for only $20.09 per person to the first 300 guests that purchase on line at www.powdermountain.com. (Check the web site later in the week.) The package includes a pasta dinner, a lift pass and party favors. Powder Mountain season pass holders may purchase the dinner package for $10.00.

Those interested in skiing only may choose to purchase a night lift pass at the regular price of $15 for adults and $12 for 7 – 12 year olds. The Sundown Lodge and the Powder Keg restaurants will extend their operating hours until midnight allowing guests to order off the regular menus as well.
