"Lake Hoodoo" dries up

Mother Nature was very generous to Hoodoo this week, dropping a nice base of 72 inches. That’s more than 25 inches of new snow this week. The Hoodoo crew has been working hard to get the mountain groomed and ready for this weekend with much success. The pond in the bowl (aka “Lake Hoodoo”) is now gone and the Ed and Manzanita lifts will both be running this weekend. The Easy Rider, Big Green Machine and Hodag lifts will still be closed for the time being, but should get running soon. The Autobahn Tubing Park is also closed until further notice. The good news is that lift tickets will be $29 Friday only. Night skiing is canceled on Friday, but might return on Saturday. With the Easy Rider lift not running, the Ski and Ride School will only offer limited lessons this weekend (call 541-822-3799, ext. 6510 for details).
